📝 Preparation Steps

Cube ½ cup butter and place back into the refrigerator while prepping dry ingredients.

4
Use a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
5

6
Turn out the dough onto a floured surface and gently press until it becomes a cohesive dough.
7
Fold the dough over on itself a 3-4 times (laminate the dough).
8
Roll or pat out to roughly ¾-1-inch thickness. Use a 2-2½-inch biscuit cutter or drinking glass to cut into rounds. Place on prepared pan.
