Step 1

Preheat oven to 400° and have ready two sheet pans lined with either parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

Cut 8 tablespoons of cold butter into tiny cubes and set aside until ready to use.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder. Using a pastry blender, cut the cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse, small peas.

Step 4

Stir in the cheddar and parsley. Then, using a sturdy spoon, stir in the buttermilk just until dough comes together. Do not over mix.

Step 5

Drop large, heaping spoonfuls of dough (about 2-3 tablespoons worth -- we used an ice cream scoop) onto the sheet pans, spacing each 2 inches apart, and bake for about 13 minutes, until cooked through and golden brown

Step 6

Once the biscuits have finished baking, brush them with the melted butter, serve, and enjoy.
