Cooking Tips

• Make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces to achieve a flaky texture.
• Do not overmix the dough, as it can result in tough biscuits.
• If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover biscuits can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• To reheat the biscuits, wrap them in foil and warm them in a preheated oven for a few minutes.
• Serve the biscuits warm with butter and honey for a delicious treat.
