How to cook deliciously - Southern Cream Biscuits

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Stage

Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in the bowl of a food processor; pulse to mix. Drop cold cubes of butter into the dry mix and pulse just until mix comes together and forms a ball, about 4 to 5 times; do not overmix.

3. Stage

Pour milk, cream, and sour cream into the dry mixture in the food processor and pulse until it just comes together and forms a ball, 4 to 5 times. Do not overmix!

4. Stage

Use a butter knife or sturdy rubber spatula to pry the dough out of the food processor and turn it onto a well-floured surface; dough will be very sticky. Don't use your fingers! They're too hot and will start melting the butter.

5. Stage

Sprinkle a little flour on top of the dough and gently knead until it comes together into a ball, about 4 to 5 times. Be gentle and do not overwork the dough; you are developing flaky layers and not really mixing it at this point. Gently shape dough into a rectangle and pat to a 1 1/2-inch thickness.

6. Stage

Use a non-serrated knife to cut dough into 6 square biscuits. Place on the prepared baking sheet so squares are just touching.

7. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack. Break biscuits apart just before serving.
