Notes
- Store any leftovers in an air-tight conatiner for 2 to 3 days and in a freezer for months. Reheat in the oven for the best texture.
- If you undermix the butter into the flour, the biscuits will be dry and not tender, and if you overmix, the biscuits will be tough.
- Based on the size of the biscuits, the baking time may slightly vary.
- Instead of milk, buttermilk, cream, or egg can also be used as a liquid for binding.
- But the texture will be different.
