Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
Whisk together the melted ½ cup unsalted butter, and 1 cup buttermilk in a bowl or large measuring cup.
Combine the buttermilk mixture with the flour mixture and stir until fully incorporated. It will make a thick dough. Fold in 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese.
Measure out each biscuit using a greased ¼ cup measuring cup and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches between all of them.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the tops of the biscuits are a light golden brown.
Combine 3 tablespoons unsalted butter,½ teaspoon garlic powderand 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley, and brush onto each biscuit while they are still hot.
