Biscuits and Rolls

Pimento Cheese Drop Biscuits
Ingredients
These biscuits are best served still warm from the oven, but you can store them in an airtight container at room temperature up to two days; warm them in a 300-degree oven for 5 minutes before serving. To make these biscuits ahead, simply follow the recipe through Step 4, then freeze dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet until firm. Transfer to a freezer bag and freeze for up to one month. Bake from frozen, adding 5 to 8 minutes to baking time.
2 1/2 cups (12.5 oz.) all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
4 oz. extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated coarse (1 cup)
1/4 cup jarred diced pimientos, drained and patted dry
1 1/4 cups buttermilk, chilled
3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
5 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
