Floating Butter Biscuits recipe

recipe

Ingredients:

• Three cups or so self-rising flour
• Twelve tablespoons/one and a half sticks refrigerated butter
• Approximately two cups (or more as necessary) of half and half
• More flour to dust with

Instructions:

• Turn up your oven to 425°F (220°C).
• On a cheese grater, shred the frozen butter into the self-rising flour.
• When the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, cut the shredded butter into the flour with a pastry cutter or fork.
• Stirring with a fork until the dough just comes together, gradually add the half and half,
• eyeballing the quantity. Watch out not to combine too much.
• Out on a surface dusted with flour, turn the dough out. Lightly pat it out to a thickness of about one inch.
• Cut biscuits with a biscuit cutter or a drinking glass, then arrange the pieces on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, separating them for crispier edges or touching for softer sides.
  Bake until tops of biscuits are golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Take out of the oven and, using a wire rack, let to cool somewhat. Served warm, top with butter or other favourites.
• Savor your mouthwatering home-made biscuits!
