Equipment

  • large baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • large mixing bowl
  • 2-inch buscuit cutter

Ingredients

  • 2 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 ounces cream cheese chilled
  • ¼ cup butter chilled
  • 1 cup buttermilk chilled

Honey Butter Glaze:

  • ¾ up butter 1 ½ sticks
  • ¼ cup honey

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Cut the cream cheese and butter into the flour mixture using a fork or a pastry blender until it resembles coarse sand with plenty of pea-size chunks of butter and cream cheese.
  • Add the buttermilk and stir just until combined. The dough will likely be pretty crumbly.
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean counter and knead until it forms a ball. Roll the dough out to 3/4 -inch in thickness and use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to cut out 8 biscuits.
  • Place the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake at 450F for 11-12 minutes until golden brown around the edges.
  • While the biscuits are baking, combine the honey butter glaze ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir often until the butter is melted. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Remove the biscuits from the oven and immediately brush generously with the honey butter glaze.
