Ingredients
  

For the Biscuit Dough
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Essential for structure; substitute with a gluten-free blend if needed.
  • 1 tablespoon Baking Powder Acts as a leavening agent; ensure freshness for maximum rise.
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar Adds a hint of sweetness; feel free to reduce for less sweetness.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (Kosher or Table Salt) Enhances flavor; kosher salt gives a nice coarser texture.
  • 0.5 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper Adds depth; adjust to your spice preference.
  • 0.5 cups Unsalted Butter (Very Cold) Delivers richness and ideal flakiness; chilled butter is key!
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh Rosemary (Chopped) Offers vibrant flavor; fresh is best, but dried works in smaller quantities.
  • 4 ounces Fresh Goat Cheese (Crumbling) Adds creaminess and tang; feta can be a tasty substitute.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (Divided) Provides moisture and richness; for a tangy twist, swap with buttermilk.
Optional Serving
  • Butter Spread on warm biscuits for an indulgent touch.
  • Fresh Strawberry Jam Perfectly complements the savory biscuits!

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and pepper.
  3. Shred the cold butter into the flour mixture and rub it until it resembles coarse meal.
  4. Stir in the chopped rosemary and crumbled goat cheese, folding gently.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and mix lightly with a fork until a sticky dough forms.
  6. Lightly flour your work surface and knead the dough gently for about 5-6 times.
  7. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick round and cut out rounds with a biscuit cutter.
  8. Brush the tops of the biscuits with the remaining heavy cream and bake for 18-20 minutes.
