Ingredients

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Using a pastry cutter or a fork, cut the butter into the flour mixture until butter is worked into pea-sized balls.
  4. Fold the milk into the batter just until combined, being careful not to overmix. The dough should look sticky and thick.
  5. Using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons), drop biscuits 2-3 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before brushing the tops with melted butter.
