Ingredients
Instructions
-
Mix the milk and vinegar in a small bowl and set it aside.
-
Meanwhile, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.Â
-
Add the 1/4 cup of cold butter and mix with either a pastry cutter or a fork until it has the texture of cornmeal.Â
-
Make a well in the center and pour in the milk mixture. Stir just until dough forms. Do not over-mix. If the dough is slightly dry, add a tablespoon of milk at a time and gently work it in. The dough should be moist and sticky.
-
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and sprinkle the top with a generous dusting of flour. Pat it down into an approximate 7 x 5-inch rectangle that's approximately 1 1/2 inches thick.
-
Using a biscuit cutter, cut out rounds and place them into a lightly oiled baking pan.
-
Melt the two tablespoons of butter and sugar together, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Then, brush the top of each biscuit with a thin layer.
-
Bake for 18 to 22 minutes or until the insides are firm and the tops are golden. Allow them to cool slightly before handling. Serve warm.
