Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 0.75 cups whole milk
- 1 package vanilla pudding mix (instant)
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon water (for egg wash)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°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.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually pour in the whole milk while stirring with a fork. Mix until a soft dough forms, but avoid overmixing.
Lightly flour your working surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick.
Using a knife or pizza cutter, divide the dough into 8 equal squares.
Prepare the pudding filling by whisking the instant vanilla pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk in a medium bowl. Stir until the pudding thickens (approximately 2 minutes).
Place a tablespoon of the prepared pudding in the center of each dough square.
Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, enclosing the pudding. Press the edges firmly to seal, using a fork to crimp them if desired.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash over the tops of the biscuit triangles.
Transfer the triangles to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Allow the triangles to cool slightly on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired before serving.
