Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Set aside.

Mix dry.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir well.

Cut butter.
Step 5
Add the cold butter and using a dough blender, fork or your hands, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 6
Add milk.
Step 7
Add the milk to the flour mixture and gently stir until a dough forms. Knead with your hands a few times, until you are able to form a ball of dough.
Step 8
Parchment paper.

Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, round cookie cutter or even the rim of a glass, cut the biscuits out of the dough. Gather the scraps of dough, pat out and repeat the process until you've used as much of the dough as you can.
