Fork Biscuits (Mary Berry Copycat Recipe)

🧂 Ingredients

• 7 tablespoon butter

  (softened, at room temperature)
• ¼ cup sugar
• 1 cup self-rising flour

  (or use 1 cup all-purpose flour + 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder - see notes)

Instructions

• 1 Preheat your oven to 350℉ (175℃) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or
  a silicone baking mat.
• 2 In a medium to a large mixing bowl, beat the softened 7 tablespoons of butter
  until smooth and creamy.
• 3 Add the sugar and beat into the softened butter until well combined (creamed).
• 4 Add ¾ cup of the self-rising flour and combine using a spatula. Your dough will
  be pretty firm at this point, so gradually work in the remaining flour a bit at
  a time. *I used an amount that was just shy of the 1 cup of flour.
• 5 Portion out the dough into small walnut-sized balls and roll them until smooth
  and round. Place the dough onto your prepared baking sheet with 2 inches of
  spacing between each ball of dough.
• 6 Use a wet fork and make one imprint across the top of the balls to press them
  down about halfway. Repeat with each ball of dough.
• 7 Bake at 350℉ (175℃) for 15-18 minutes or until the cookies are a very pale
  golden color with a light brown footing.
• 8 Remove the cookies when done and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 2-3
  minutes, then transfer them to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
