👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare biscuit layers
Cut each biscuit into halves or quarters
Press half of them evenly into the bottom of the dish
Slightly flatten to cover the base
2. Add ham & cheese
Layer in this order:
Half of the ham
Half of the cheese
Remaining ham
Remaining cheese
3. Top with biscuits
Place remaining biscuit pieces over the top, slightly overlapping to form a slab.
4. Mix cream custard
In a bowl, whisk:
Heavy cream
Eggs
Salt
Pepper
Slowly pour evenly over the casserole — let it seep down into the layers.
5. Make buttery topping
Mix together:
Melted butter
Garlic powder
Italian seasoning
Parmesan
Brush generously over the biscuit tops.
6. Bake
Cover loosely with foil and bake 20 minutes.
Remove foil and bake another 10–15 minutes, until:
Top is golden brown
Cheese is bubbling
Biscuits are fully cooked inside
7. Rest & slice
Let rest 5–10 minutes before cutting into squares.

🔥 Pro Tips
Use Swiss cheese for classic deli flavor
For extra gooey results, add an extra ½ cup cheese
If biscuits brown too fast, tent with foil
Letting it rest prevents cheese from running everywhere
