Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 450°
Place flour, salt, sugar and baking powder in food processor and pulse for a few seconds to combine.
Cut butter into small pieces and add to food processor.
Pulse half a dozen times and check for the size of the butter pieces.
Repeat if necessary until the butter is in pieces roughly the size of peas.
Put flour mixture in a mixing bowl and add the cold milk.
Toss together gently until barely combined.
As soon as the dough holds together, turn it out on a lightly floured counter.
Gently "knead" the dough a few strokes until it is a mostly a cohesive ball.
Roll the dough into a rectangle 1/2-3/4 inch thick, depending on how tall you like your biscuits.
Cut into 2 inch circles, you should get ~6, and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake at 450° for 8-10 minutes.
Butter and eat while still warm.
