Dessert Buttermilk Biscuits

List of Ingredients

2 cup Self rising flour
2 tbl Granulated sugar
1/2 cup Cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup Cold buttermilk


Recipe

Heat an oven to 400 F. Combine the flour with the sugar and butter in a mixing bowl. Cut in the butter by hand or by machine until the mixture is evenly crumbly. Add the buttermilk and stir only until well moistened.

Turn out onto a work surface lightly sprinkled with flour and gather mixture into a dough. Flatten to make a circle 3/4 inch thick. Use a biscuit cutter dipped in flour to cut six 3 inch rounds from the dough circle. (This should use all the dough.)

With a spatula, transfer the rounds to an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until lightly golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Transfer biscuits to a rack. Eat while still warm, if practical.
*Note: To make self-rising flour, simply combine 1 cup all purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
