• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 large egg

• Extra shredded cheddar cheese for topping

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prep:
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a standard muffin tin or line with paper liners. Set aside.

2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.

3. Cut in the Butter:
   Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Cold butter is key to creating that tender, flaky texture.

4. Add Cheese:
   Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.

5. Combine the Wet Ingredients:
   In a separate small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg. Pour into the flour mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix — a slightly lumpy batter is okay.

6. Fill the Muffin Tin:
   Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full. Sprinkle a little extra shredded cheddar on top of each for a golden cheesy crust.

7. Bake:
   Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Cool and Serve:
   Let the biscuits cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm with a pat of butter or as-is — they’re that good!
