Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or a fork until the size of peas. Make a well in the center of mixture and add milk, cheese and parsley. Gently mix until a soft dough forms.

    Roll dough on a floured work surface to 1-inch thick. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut dough into circles and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the bottoms of the biscuits are golden brown. Makes 8 biscuits

    Note: Freezer butter for 15 minutes and then use the large holes of a grater to grate into flour mixture. Makes easier to incorporate and makes a great flaky biscuit
