low speed until just combined. ... Add buttermilk and baking powder into
blender, mix until combined.

must remain as cold and hard as possible until the moment the biscuits
go into the hot oven. It is the melting butter that gives the biscuits
the texture and moisture it needs to be a good recipe ... Over mixing
will result in a tough biscuit.

flatten then fold the top half of the dough over itself, rotate 90
degrees and repeat until combined. Do not over mix. ... Using biscuit
cutter - TWIST! when you press, else your biscuits will become misshapen
when cooking. ... Let sit in the fridge for approx 10 minutes to allow
more raise. Remove from fridge. ... Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in
a saucepan, then pour over the top of the biscuits. ... Bake for 18
minutes, until golden. Remove from oven.
