Before COVID-19, the holiday season was a time for in-person connection.
Friends and family dropped by or caught up on news at the year-end swirl of parties.
But this year things will be different.
Traditions will be disrupted.
Over the years we have baked many different biscuit recipes.
This is a holiday season none of us will ever forget.
Many tables will have empty chairs that should have been full.
And we can look forward to reminiscing about it all next year, with our loved ones gathered around.
16 Servings
Ingredients
Preheat oven to 400F.
Brush bottom and sides of an 8-inch square pan with some of the butter.
Whisk flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl.
Add cream; gently mix with a rubber spatula until dough holds together.
Transfer dough to a floured surface.
Gently form into a 7-inch square, transfer to pan and press into pan.
With a sharp knife, score into 16 biscuits.
Brush top with remaining butter.
Bake until top is golden brown and a skewer comes out clean when poked into center, 2030 minutes.
Cut biscuits while still warm, and let cool briefly before lifting out of pan one by one.
