In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring with a fork or wooden spoon until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and gently knead it a few times to bring it together into a smooth ball.
Roll the dough out to about 1/8-inch thickness using a floured rolling pin.
Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough into 1-inch-wide strips, then cut the strips into 2-inch-long pieces for dumplings.
Bring the chicken broth or stock to a gentle boil in a large pot over medium heat.
Drop the dumpling pieces into the boiling broth one at a time to prevent sticking.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer the dumplings for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Taste and adjust the seasoning of the broth with additional salt, if needed.
Serve the dumplings hot, ladled with the broth for a comforting and hearty dish.
