Cream Biscuits


Another of Chef John's recipes. Although I've increased the cream a bit because I kept adding while stirring. Perhaps this flour is more absorbent.


  • 2 cups flour including raising agent (2tsp baking powder, sprinkle salt) 
  • 2tbs sugar 
  • 2 cups heavy cream 
  • plus a good dob of melted butter 


Heat oven to Freaking Hot (260c, mine only goes to 225c). Line baking sheet with foil.

Mix main ingredients into a dough, and then for some reason Chef John does an imitation of making puff pastry thing without the layering butter, just once (fold into three and roll out again) and perhaps it makes them flakier. Anyway I did and they pouffed. Cut out, then brush top with melted butter. Bake until golden (10-12 mins). Brush with butter AGAIN. Serve.
