Ingredients for Your Homemade KFC-Style Biscuit Adventure:

• ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup cold salted butter, cubed
• 2/3 cup buttermilk

Step-by-Step Guide to Buttermilk Biscuit Bliss:

1. Preheat for Perfection: Get your oven ready by preheating it to 415°F (213°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. Dry Ingredients First: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt. This ensures all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Creating the Flaky Layers: Using a pastry blender, your fingertips, or a knife and fork, cut the cold butter cubes into the dry ingredients. Work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. This creates pockets of butter that will steam during baking, resulting in those delightful flaky layers.
4. Adding the Buttermilk: Pour in the buttermilk and stir with a fork until the dough just comes together. Avoid overmixing, as this can lead to tough biscuits.
5. Kneading for Smoothness: On a lightly floured surface, gently knead the dough a few times until it becomes smooth. Don't overwork it – a few kneads are all you need.
6. Rolling and Cutting: Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about ½ inch. Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter (or a similar round mold) to cut out the biscuit shapes.
7. Forming the Biscuits: Gently gather any dough scraps, re-roll it out, and cut out additional biscuits. Repeat this process until all the dough is used.
8. Baking to Golden Perfection: Arrange the biscuit dough rounds on your prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them for spreading. Bake the biscuits for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and risen.
9. A Warm and Buttery Reward: Remove the biscuits from the oven and serve them immediately while they're warm and fresh. They are perfect on their own or alongside your favorite meal. Enjoy these delicious Homemade KFC-Style Biscuits and experience the joy of homemade buttermilk bliss!
