Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Let’s not forget our trusty Oven and a large mixing bowl

Our star ingredient? Mozzarella! It adds a savory punch and delectable ooey gooeyness to the biscuit. And when it bakes…oh boy, the irresistible melted cheese look! As for substitutions, you can use cheddar or monterey jack for a different flavor profile.

How To Make Mozzarella Biscuits

1. Firstly, preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. As it’s getting hot and ready, let’s prepare our dough.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Mix well.
3. Cut in the chilled butter until you get a crumbly mixture. The key to a flaky biscuit is cold butter so don���t let it warm up!
4. Add the milk gradually, kneading lightly after each addition. Create a soft, and a bit sticky dough.
5. Gently fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese until it���s evenly distributed in the dough.
6. Using a spoon or an ice cream scoop, drop dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Space them well, as these biscuits like to spread while baking.
7. Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve them warm straight from the oven and watch the cheese strings stretch as you pull them apart!
