1
Prepare the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and chili powder. Whisk together until evenly mixed.
3
Cut in Butter
Add the cold, cubed butter into the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4
Add Wet Ingredients
Pour in the milk and add the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives. Stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
5
Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a rectangle about 1 inch thick. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter or a glass.
6
Bake the Biscuits
Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
7
Cool and Serve
Allow the biscuits to cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your famous chili biscuits!
