Garlic Butter & Sharp Cheddar Cottage Cheese Biscuits, a ‘Red Lobster’ copycat recipe. These biscuits are soft, cheesy, and topped with garlic butter for extra flavor.

  • Total Time: 28 minutes
  • Yield: 8 biscuits 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese (blended until smooth)
  • 1 ½ cups self-rising flour (plus extra for dusting)
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Blend the cottage cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and garlic powder. Pour in the smooth cottage cheese. Stir until a shaggy dough begins to form.
  4. Add the shredded cheddar cheese and fold it in by hand just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
  5. Use a large ice cream scoop or 1/4 cup measure to drop 8 biscuits onto the baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15–18 minutes until the tops are golden brown.
  7. Mix the melted butter, garlic salt, and parsley. Brush generously over the hot biscuits immediately after removing them from the oven.

Notes

  • The dough will be sticky, but do not over-flour it, or they will be tough.
  • Use a scoop to transfer them to the baking sheet rather than rolling them out.
  • Blend the cottage cheese first for a consistent rise.
  • If using all-purpose flour, add 2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp salt.
