Notes

  1. Press It! For the garlic, use a garlic press for best results. You will want the garlic as fine as possible.  If you don’t have a garlic press, chop the garlic finely.
  2. Spoon It! After dipping the split biscuits in the garlic sauce, I spoon the leftover garlic pieces at the bottom of the bowl over each biscuit.
  3. Sprinkle It! Sprinkle the cheese on the biscuits (Step 5) over the entire biscuit.  Once assembled and baked, the biscuits will pull apart easier.
