- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In medium bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, to taste, and sugar together using a fork; cut in shortening until it resembles cornmeal.
- Add cheese.
- Stir in buttermilk all at one time just until blended. Do not over stir.
- Drop by tablespoon, or use ice cream scoop, onto a well greased baking sheet.
- Brush dough with melted butter.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Note: it took the biscuits 20 minutes to cook in my oven, but I have and oven that always takes longer to bake than the recipe says.
