Instructions

1 In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt,
and sugar. Grate the cold or frozen butter directly into the mixture, ensuring
it is well combined as you grate.
2 Next, grate the cheddar cheese and incorporate it into the mixture. Slowly pour
in the cold buttermilk while using a fork to stir the dough until it forms a
shaggy consistency.
3 Transfer the shaggy dough to a clean surface or leave it in the bowl. Form it
into a disk about an inch thick. Fold the right side towards the center, then
the left side over the top, alternating crumbs between folds. Rotate and repeat
this for a flaky texture.
4 Flatten the dough to create a rectangle approximately 7 inches by 5 inches. Cut
this rectangle into 6 equal pieces with a straight motion. Optionally, trim the
edges to enhance the flaky layers.
5 Place the biscuit pieces on a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze for 10-15
minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 425°F.
6 Brush the tops of the biscuits with buttermilk or cream and bake them in the
oven for approximately 15 minutes until they turn a light golden color. Once
done, allow them to cool slightly before serving warm.
