• Preheat your oven to 450℉. Line a rimmed baking sheet (we like the shiny metal ones over the dark, non-stick varieties that can cause scorching) with parchment paper and set aside.
• Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine.
• Then add the buttermilk and butter to a smaller bowl and whisk vigorously till well combined. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir just until moist. (If you over stir the mixture, the biscuits will become tough.) Then fold in the cheese.
• Sprinkle some flour on a large cutting board, silicone mat, or your counter. Knead the dough on your floured surface until it comes together. With a floured rolling pin, roll the dough into a 1¼-inch thick rectangle.
• Using a 2 ½-inch biscuit or cookie cutter cut out your biscuit rounds. You should end up with about 10-12 biscuits. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.

FOR THE TOPPING

• Add the butter, parsley, and garlic powder in a small bowl and whisk together. Brush the biscuit tops with the butter mixture.
• Serve hot!
