Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (218°C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups (248 g) all-purpose flour, 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until evenly combined.
  • Pour 1 ½ cups (356 ml) heavy whipping cream into the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until the dough comes together into a thick mass; if needed, gently use your hands to finish bringing the dough together.
  • Using two spoons (or a scoop), drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared cookie sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. You should get about 8 biscuits, depending on the size you make.
  • Bake for 14–16 minutes, rotating the cookie sheet halfway through baking, until the tops and bottoms are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.
  • Remove the biscuits from the oven and let them cool a few minutes on the cookie sheet before serving.
