Added 2 tsp. sugar to the mix and they were excellent. I did grease my baking sheet contrary to instructions though as mine almost always sticks. Not having read the instructions too well, I rolled the dough out before folding instead of just forming a rectangle with my hands and then after that I accidentally rolled out the dough too thin so I just refolded it and started over. Even with all that extra handling, the biscuits did not come out tough or overworked. Next time, I’ll baste them with butter instead of buttermilk and try a cast iron skillet.

Really, really good. I made this about 7 times before I made a couple tweeks: I use a full stick of butter (8 Tablespoons); 1/2 t. baking soda; and ideally, use 1/2 regular flour and 1/2 cake flour; if you use kosher salt, I use 1-1/2 tsp, and sometime I add 1T of sugar. Even if I don’t do any of that, the biscuits are outstanding. The folding technique described produces a wonderfully flaky biscuit.

Wonderful Biscuits! Nice crispness on the outside and tender flakiness on the inside.

These are really good and they do have the layers. I used a pumpkin to cut them out because I didn’t have any 2 inch circles. They were cute and yummy with honey!

I`d love to try them!! Please would you tell me how to replace Buttermilk, see, I live in Argentina and I can´t find a translation for that other than the literal one. Perhaps you would know how to make it? Thank you so much!!

I tried this wonderful biscuit recipe for dinner last night and I got raves from my husband who doesn’t even like biscuits! He asked me if I would use that recipe next time!
thanks !

We southerners love our buttermilk biscuits and this recipe is a winner! The only thing I do differently is bake them in a buttered iron skillet. The bottoms brown nicely and have a great buttery crisp to them.
