BEST BUTTERY BISCUITS

½ c. butter
2 c. self-rising flour
¾ c. - 1 c. whipping cream
¼ c. butter, melted





Recipe

Cut ½ c. butter into flour with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly.
Add whipping cream, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead lightly 3 or 4 times.

Roll or pat dough to ¾" thickness.
Cut with a 2 inch round cutter; place biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet.

Bake at 400º for 13-15 minutes.
Brush biscuits with ¼ cup melted butter.
You can also add sharp cheddar cheese (about ½c. - ¾ c.) to the flour before adding the other ingredients.

If you don't care for the butter biscuits, then use 1 1/2 c. self-rising flour, 1 c. whipping cream, 1/3 t. baking powder.
Mix as indicated above and bake.

This are wonderful party biscuits (use
a small biscuit cutter)
