Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, cold
- 2 ounces Cream cheese, cold
- 0.75 cup Buttermilk, cold
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted (for brushing)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt until well combined.
Cut the cold unsalted butter and cream cheese into small cubes and add them to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the butter and cream cheese into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the cold buttermilk. Gently stir with a fork until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a 1-inch-thick rectangle. Fold the dough in half, then rotate it 90 degrees. Repeat this folding step two more times to create layers.
Using a biscuit cutter (about 2.5 inches in diameter), cut out biscuits. Press straight down without twisting to ensure the biscuits rise evenly. Gather scraps, rework the dough, and cut additional biscuits if needed.
Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are touching each other. This helps them rise higher and stay soft on the sides.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-14 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown on top.
Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter for a glossy finish and enhanced flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy!
