Rosemary and Garlic Drop Biscuits

There is nothing I love more than BISCUITS. Okay, actually I do love mac and cheese more than biscuits, but they are definitely my second favorite food. This recipe for rosemary garlic drop biscuits is a super simple and quick biscuit recipe. You just mix the dough and drop them on a pan and bake. 

What makes them extra delicious is that after you bake them for a few minutes, you spoon a delicious garlic butter sauce over the top before you finish baking them until golden brown. It makes my mouth water just thinking about it.

Rosemary and Garlic Drop Biscuits

Turn your processor on and let it mix your flour mixture and butter until it combines and looks a little like slightly wet sand. You can also use a pastry blender, but I don’t have one (it’s on my registry, hint hint!) so I used my handy food processor.

Pour your sandy mixture back into the bowl from earlier. Chop up your rosemary and add 2 teaspoons of it (reserve another teaspoon), along with your grated Parmesan cheese, to the flour mixture.

Bake for 10 minutes in a 400-degree oven.

While those are baking, you’ll want to chop your garlic. Chop it up as finely as you can and then sprinkle it with salt. Use the side of your knife to smash it into the cutting board until you have a wet paste. Set aside
