Homemade biscuits make any meal more special, and they are not hard or time consuming to make. Making these flaky, cheesy, Cabot cheddar cream homemade biscuits takes just 30 minutes from start to finish!
A strange, wonderful feeling comes over me when I take the first bite of warm homemade biscuits. It cannot be explained in words. It must be experienced to be fully understood.
I was recently given a gift of cheese from the great folks at Cabot Creamery. They expected nothing in return for it, but I felt like it would be an injustice to use it in a recipe and not share it with you.
I decided to head over to their website to see what other people have made with their Cabot Creamery cheese. I knew what sounded good to me, but I wanted to try out a fan favorite recipe. Something that was a hands down winner. That is how I came to find a recipe for one of the best homemade biscuits I have ever eaten: Cheddar Cream Biscuits.
The biscuits are delicious alongside a warm bowl of soup or chili, or as a delicious breakfast sandwich, when filled with eggs and bacon.
To round out this great recipe, I used some of my favorite pantry staples, including King Arthur Flour and Clabber Girl Baking Powder. These quality ingredients, combined with Seriously Sharp white cheddar cheese from Cabot were destined to create deliciousness.
This is Cabot’s recipe as it appears on their site. I made absolutely no changes to the ingredients used.
The only thing that might make these homemade biscuits tastier is a light brushing of melted butter and a sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper on top after you bake them.

- Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface and knead about 6 times. Roll or press dough into 3/4-inch-thick circle.
- Cut out rounds with floured 2 1/2-inch cutter or inverted drinking glass, pressing scraps together to cut additional biscuits. Alternatively, cut circle into 10 wedges.
