MOLASSES BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees with rack in center. Sift together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, ginger, cloves, and pepper. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
• In a small bowl, whisk together milk and molasses until completely combined. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, and add the milk-molasses mixture.
• Using a fork, stir the mixture until it almost comes together. Gently bring the remaining smaller dough particles together with your fingertips. Transfer dough to a very lightly floured surface, and pat into a flattened circle about 6 inches in diameter and 3/4 inch thick. Cut dough into rounds with a 2-inch cookie cutter. Gently press the excess dough together, and cut several more biscuits. Gently press the remaining excess dough together one more time, and cut one more biscuit.
• Transfer biscuits to a parchment-lined baking sheet; generously brush tops with cream. Bake until golden brown, 24 to 26 minutes. Place biscuits on a wire rack to cool slightly.

BIG BATCH OF GRANDMA'S BISCUITS WITH MOLASSES BUTTER

Steps:

• For the biscuits: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and the chilled, cubed butter. Using a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until it resembles a coarse meal. Alternatively, combine the flour and chilled butter in a food processor and pulse to combine until it resembles coarse meal, then transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Stir in the baking powder, salt, sugar and baking soda. Form a well in the center of the flour and pour in the buttermilk. Mix with a fork until all of the ingredients are incorporated and the dough begins to shape into a ball. (The dough will be slightly dry.)
• Dust a clean work surface with flour, coat your palms, and rub some on a rolling pin. Turn out the dough onto the work surface. Knead the dough for 1 to 2 minutes, folding it over onto itself each time. Pat the dough into a rectangle and then roll the dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Dip a 3-inch biscuit cutter or the rim of a 3-inch-wide glass in flour, and then cut out the biscuits. Alternatively, use a knife to cut the biscuits into 3-inch squares. Reshape the leftover dough into a ball, roll it out again, and cut out more biscuits. Repeat this process until the dough is gone.
• Place the biscuits on the baking sheet and bake until the tops are golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. While the biscuits are still hot, brush the biscuits with the 2 tablespoons softened butter.
• For the butter: Stir or mash the butter and molasses or honey together to combine, leaving a few streaks of molasses visible.
• Serve the flavored butter with the warm biscuits.
