Cream Biscuits
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
Milk or butter for brushing tops of biscuits
Into a bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
Add the cream and stir gently until it just forms a dough. Gather the
dough into a ball, knead it gently 6 times on a lightly floured
surface and pat or roll out 1/2" thick. Cut into squares or use a 2
1/2" round cutter dipped in flour and transfer them to an ungreased
baking sheet. Gather the scraps and re-roll then cut out more
biscuits. Should be 10 in all. Brush the tops with milk or butter and
bake the biscuits in a preheated 425 oven for 15 minutes, or until
they are pale golden. Transfer the biscuits to a rack and let them
cool for 5 minutes. Serve with jam and butter.
