MILE-HIGH FLAKY BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a bowl. Cut butter into flour with a pastry blender or two forks until mixture resembles small peas. Stir in buttermilk with a fork until dough begins to form a ball. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface; knead 2 or 3 times, gradually adding additional flour as needed to prevent sticking.

Use a 2 1/2-inch round cutter to cut biscuits, pressing scraps together once. Place biscuits, slightly touching, on a baking sheet. Chill 15 minutes.
