Happy Dunking!

Our tasty soups will help you stay warm and cozy during these long winter months. But I must admit, there is a simple-add on that takes little or no time to take your #SoupTime to another level!

What is that you ask? Nothing like good ole fashion biscuits!  They are fast and easy to make and you will only need one bowl, which makes for easy clean-up!

The ingredient list includes just a few pantry staples, along with some heavy cream, that all get mixed up in one bowl. It is as simple as that.

There's no chilling the butter, no need to have buttermilk on hand (or whip up a buttermilk substitute), and no special procedures.

And just as you'd expect with any biscuit, these are slightly crisp on the outside and pillow-soft on the inside. But what really makes them my go-to biscuit recipe on weekends is the fact that from start to finish, these cream-based biscuits (no butter!) only take around 15 minutes to make.
​​

Since they're made just with cream and no butter, these cream biscuits have a super soft and almost airy texture. They are divine straight out of the oven and they don't keep as well as other biscuits, so I usually only make them when I'm planning to serve them right away.

I dare you not to dive into these biscuits the second they come out of the oven. Or, once they've had a minute to cool!

​So here goes....

What You Need

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups heavy cream (divided)

Equipment
Parchment paper
8x8-inch metal pan
Mixing bowl
Liquid measuring cup
Measuring spoons
Dough cutter or large knife

Instructions

1. Prep and preheat: Place a layer of parchment paper across the bottom and up 2 sides of an 8x8-inch pan. Preheat oven to 425°F.
2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together dry ingredients until combined.
3. Add the cream: Pour in all but 1/4 cup of the cream. Stir until the dough is shaggy, then add the remaining cream and stir to combine.
4. Knead the dough: Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface. Knead the dough for about 30 seconds, just until it all comes together.
5. Form the dough: Shape dough into a rectangle, about 12 inches long and 4 inches wide. Cut it in half lengthwise, then cut each piece into 4 pieces horizontally. Place each of the pieces in the prepared pan.
6. Bake: Transfer the pan to the oven, and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until golden​
