Southern Cream Biscuits Recipes

SOUTHERN CREAM BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, stir together flour, sugar and cream until the dough forms a ball.
• Turn the dough out onto a surface dusted with additional flour.
• Fold the dough in 1/2 and kneed 5 to 7 times, adding just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to your hands.
• Gently roll out dough to 1/2 inch thickness.
• Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter coated with flour, cut dough into biscuits.
• Place on baking sheet coated with cooking spray, leaving at least 1-inch between each biscuit.
• Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.

SOUTHERN CREAM BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to mix. Drop cold cubes of butter into the dry mix and pulse just until mix comes together and forms a ball, about 4 to 5 times; do not overmix.
• Use a butter knife or sturdy rubber spatula to pry the dough out of the food processor and turn it onto a well-floured surface; dough will be very sticky. Don't use your fingers! They're too hot and will start melting the butter.
• Sprinkle a little flour on top of the dough and gently knead until it comes together into a ball, about 4 to 5 times. Be gentle and do not overwork the dough; you are developing flaky layers and not really mixing it at this point. Gently shape dough into a rectangle and pat to a 1 1/2-inch thickness.
• Use a non-serrated knife to cut dough into 6 square biscuits. Place on the prepared baking sheet so squares are just touching.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack. Break biscuits apart just before serving.
