1
Prepare the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring the water and salt to a boil. Gradually stir in the grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.
2
Add Milk and Cheese
Once the grits are thickened, gradually stir in the milk and allow it to cook for another 5 minutes. Then, add the cheddar cheese and butter, stirring until melted and creamy. Season with black pepper and adjust salt to taste.
3
Prepare Croissants
While the grits are cooking, preheat your oven according to the croissant package instructions. Bake the croissants until golden brown and flaky.
4
Serve
Serve the creamy cheese grits hot with the flaky croissants on the side. Garnish the grits with chopped chives for added flavor.
