Cheese Biscuits | Homemade Cheese Biscuits with Amul Cheese

Let me tell you the story behind my trials where this recipe is the main focus. My mother’s childhood friend made these for her daughter and told my mom who is one of her besties to try them out (for herself and of course ME).

My mother, thought a step ahead and decided not to take the trouble of doing it at all and instead asked me to help out. She is pretty old by the way. So I made up my mind to not let my mother do any work on this except eat them of course and I set out to making these biscuits all by myself. And boy, they turned out good.

This recipe of cheese biscuits is just awesome. The biscuits were so airy and light and mouth-melting (that’s what my husband called them). I ended up sending out some to my aunt and uncle too. Guess this is a family favourite now and one day it could be yours too.
