Flaky Buttery Biscuits
  1. Heat oven and prepare pan; whisk dry ingredients: Preheat the oven to 450°F. Butter or line a baking sheet with parchment. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

  2. Work in butter, followed by milk: Using a fork or 2 table knives, combine the butter and flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Slowly add the milk, stirring with a fork, to the desired consistency.

  3. Gently knead dough, then roll out: Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and gently knead just to bring the dough together. Carefully roll out the dough about ¾ inch thick.

  4. Cut into rounds and transfer to baking sheet: Using a biscuit cutter or sturdy glass, cut about 12 biscuits, re-rolling any scraps. Place on the lined baking sheet. (The biscuits can be frozen at this point. Freeze on the baking sheet, then remove to a resealable container or plastic bag for easier storage.)

  5. Bake the biscuits for 13 to 15 minutes (add 3 to 4 additional minutes for frozen ones), until golden brown. Cool slightly and serve warm.
