👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
2️⃣ Make the Biscuits
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Cut in cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until crumbly.
Stir in buttermilk and shredded cheese until a soft dough forms.
Turn onto a floured surface and gently roll out to ¾-inch thickness.
Cut into circles using a biscuit cutter.
3️⃣ Cook the Beef Filling
In a skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat.
Add onion and garlic; cook until soft.
Season with salt, pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce.
Stir in cheese until melted and combined. Remove from heat.
4️⃣ Assemble
Place half the biscuits on the baking sheet.
Spoon the beef mixture onto each biscuit base, then top with another biscuit round.
Press the edges lightly to seal.
5️⃣ Brush and Bake
Mix melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley. Brush over tops of biscuits.
Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
6️⃣ Serve
Cool slightly and serve warm — perfect with ketchup, mustard, or dipping sauces!
