NORTH-MEETS-SOUTH BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Cut butter into small chunks and return to the refrigerator to keep cold.
• Put 1 tablespoon cider vinegar in the bottom of a measuring cup and add the heavy cream to equal 3/4 cup. Set aside.
• Combine the dry ingredients in a food processor bowl.
• Add the butter and pulse until no chunks of butter are obvious (kinda crumbly, but will be mostly flour).
• Pour in the heavy cream which will appear curdled, pulsing until mixed. You'll have to use a spatula to scrape the curdled cream from the cup.
• Once the dough looks more combined and almost forms a ball, remove from food processor bowl to a floured surface.
• Pat the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Try not to overwork the dough.
• Cut biscuits with sharp biscuit cutter; do not twist the cutter, just punch down and remove. You'll have to re-roll the dough but keep in mind, the less working of the dough, the flakier the biscuit will be. They'll still taste just as good.
• Place the biscuits in a round baking pan, with sides of biscuits touching each other as much as possible and/or touching the sides of the pan (do not grease pan).
• Bake for about 10 minutes or lightly browned.
• Serve with pepper gravy, sausage gravy, chocolate gravy or simply butter & honey, plain butter, or butter and sugar!
