• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 3 Tbsp shortening
• 1/3 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
• 1 Tbsp chopped fresh chives
• 1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1 Tbsp melted unsalted butter

Preheat oven to 450. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or coat with nonstick spray.

Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Cut in shortening with a pastry blender or two knives until pea-sized. Mix in Cheddar, chives, and parsley, then stir in buttermilk.

Knead dough on a floured surface just to incorporate. Shape into a 6-inch square, 1-inch thick. Cut into 12 pieces and arrange on prepared baking sheet, spacing 2-inches apart; brush with melted butter. Bake until golden, 15 minutes.
