Make the Biscuit Topping:
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in cheddar cheese. Gradually mix in milk until a dough forms.
Assemble the Cobbler:

Bake:
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown.
Finish and Serve:
