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

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together well.

Add the butter, and, using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add the milk and stir just until dough comes together; it will be sticky.

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.

Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Remove from oven; cool on a wire rack. Serve warm.
