Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard and ¾ cup of chilled Irish stout. Stir until smooth.
- Grate the frozen Irish butter directly into the flour mixture, tossing gently until each piece is coated.
- Add 1 cup of grated aged Irish cheddar to the mixture, create a well in the center, and pour in the stout and mustard mixture. Gently fold together until just combined.
- On a lightly floured surface, turn out the shaggy dough and knead a couple of times. Roll out to about 1-inch thick and fold it over a few times.
- Form the dough into a square, cut into squares or rounds, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Bake for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes
Ensure all ingredients are kept cold for the best texture and flavor. Freeze cut biscuits for at least 15 minutes before baking for best results.
