    Continue stirring your melted butter so that the spices are evenly distributed throughout., Use a pastry brush for this step, which you can find at any store that sells kitchen supplies.

    Make sure that you apply the butter evenly and generously to each biscuit., Some people prefer their biscuits soft and gooey, while others like theirs a bit firmer, so bake yours accordingly! You can always check on your biscuits after eight minutes and decide if you want to let them bake longer or not.

    A good rule of thumb is to wait until they look golden brown.Don’t forget to set your timer! , This step is optional, and perfect for those who like their Cheddar Bay Biscuits extra buttery.

    If you have left over butter mixture, dip your pastry brush in it again and give your baked biscuits a second coating. , Cheddar Bay biscuits are best when they’re fresh out of the oven.

    They go great as a side dish for a delicious seafood entree, like lobster, salmon, or crab.

    If you aren't a fan of seafood, they're just as good with chicken, lasagna, or any warm comfort food.

    They don't have to be eaten as a side dish, though! You can eat them on their own as a snack too.
