BUTTERY BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups whipping cream
2 tablespoons butter melted
Combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the whipping cream all at once.
Using a fork, stir just until moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead by gently folding and pressing dough 10 to 12 strokes. Pat or lightly roll dough into an 8-inch square. Cut into 16 squares. Place biscuits 1 inch apart on a large ungreased cooking sheet. Brush tops with the melted butter.
Bake in a preheated oven at 425 for about 12 minutes or until golden. Remove from cookie sheet. Serve hot. Makes 16 biscuits.
