Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt until well combined.
Gently fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
In another bowl, mix melted butter and milk until blended; pour into dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each dollop.
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top. Let cool slightly before serving.
