Garlic Parmesan Biscuits

This is an easy, delicious drop biscuit recipe.  That means no rolling, no kneading, no worries.  These are way better than Red Lobster biscuits.  I promise.

Topping
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon oil
 1 clove garlic, minced
1-2 teaspoons fresh herbs (I used parsley and tarragon)

Biscuits
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
 1/2 teaspoon salt
 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
 5 tablespoons cold butter
 1 cup milk
 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced


Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon  oil over med high heat.  Once melted add the minced garlic and stir for about a minute.  Remove from heat and add the fresh herbs. Set aside.

In a large bowl, sift together flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center of flour mixture. Add the milk, garlic, and parmesan cheese and stir just until combined. Drop batter by spoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet. (Mine stuff a little so will probably use parchment paper next time)
Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes then brush garlic/herb butter over tops.  Return to oven for 2-5 more minutes, until lightly browned.

Unbelievably good and super easy.  Enjoy!
