This recipe was my grandma's, but I have altered it slightly to make it low-er fat.

Ingredients
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 2 teaspoons sugar (you can use Splenda, if you want)
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut in pieces
  • 2 cups 1 % milk (or heavy cream, if you're not weight-concious)

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together well.
  3. Add the butter, and, using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Add the milk and stir just until dough comes together; it will be sticky.
  5. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface, and, with floured fingers, pat dough to a 1-inch thickness. Use a 2 1/2-inch round biscuit or cookie cutter to cut the biscuits, cutting as close as possible so there are very few scraps.
  6. Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
  7. Remove from oven; cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
