The tip about shaping the dough into patties and baking in a cake pan was perfect. The butter pool gave the biscuits beautiful color, incredible flavor and made the biscuits easy to serve, allowing them to pop right out. Instead of having the butter in the recipe, it is around the biscuits, allowing for the light browning that only butter can give, yet still soaking into the dough for the flavor. In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together.
Butter Biscuits instructions
In a large mixing bowl add the Flour (more flour u use the more biscuits u make). Add the salt and egg and 1 stick of melted butter. Mix well adding enough milk at a time til a soft dough forms. Cut the cold butter into cubes and add to dough..
On a well floured surface pour dough out onto four. Sprinkle top of dough with a flour. Mix and slightly knead but don't over do it til u can still see little chunks of Butter throughout. Using a rolling pin lightly floured lightly roll out the dough til desired thickness. Using a round cookie cutter sprayed with nonstick cooking spray and cut out the biscuits.

Preheat oven to 400°F while biscuits are rising. Once biscuits are puffy arrange them slightly apart on a nonstick sheet/cookie pan. Bake for 7-8minutes til light golden brown. Remove from oven and serve immediately 😋.
Cut butter into mixture until it begins to look like cornmeal. Make a well with flour mixture and slowly add milk into the middle. Knead dough with your fingers and add milk when necessary. In a large bowl, toss together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until only pea size chunks of butter remain.
