- 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

- Pour in the buttermilk and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

- Let the Red Lobster cheese biscuit loaf cool slightly in the pan before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a different flavor, try using Monterey Jack or Colby cheese.
- If you don’t have buttermilk, mix 1 cup of milk with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar and let it sit for 5-10 minutes.
- Ensure your butter is cold when cutting it into the flour for the best biscuit texture.
