In the imortal words of my chef mom, " It's square because I don't cut corners, "

[winter]

These look perfect! Great idea cutting and stacking, then re-rolling, for more layers and I totally agree about making them square, for no wasted scraps. Thanks for sharing!

Well, so I made this recipe. The best biscuits I ever ate

[shadow]

Claire in all Her glory, before She was forced into all these emotional labor challenges

[AGTsakumis]

Absolutely fantastic and what a marvelous presenter! You should have her on more often. Many thx for the great recipe.

[Michelessex]

Great crisp articulate presentation; we need MORE Claire, more often, cooking real food we eat versus junk food!Thank you Calire.

[Whistlyful]

These were the best biscuits I’ve ever had in my life (definitely the best I’ve ever made). 1000% would recommend. Claire is QUEEN!!

She's the best on this channel! let her space to do more videos

Made these today.... Without a food processor, I froze the butter and used a boxed grater. Hands down, the absolute ULTIMATE biscuit! The layers went on and on! Sublime taste! Thank you, Claire <3

I'd very much rather Claire showcase her amazing baking skills in making these "normal", classic pastries. :)

[danielm]

We need more Claire videos!!! She's the best!

[joellloyd]

You know it's gonna taste amazing when the dough itself looks good enough to eat

[eriklascano]

This is amazing technique I can see how you can do this for other baked or pastry items as well . Like the science of using the method of pie crust incorporated into a biscuit.

I finally made these! I pulsed the butter one too many times on my first try but they were still delicious and flakey, just not as much as Claire's. My second attempt is in the oven now!

Here is the Recipe! (After studying the video to get measurements.)

3 1/2 cups of All Purpose Flour
2 tsp. Kosher salt
2 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. sugar (OPTIONAL)
1/4 tsp. Baking Soda
1 cup of Buttermilk
What looked to be about 2 sticks of butter (sliced into 1 tbsp. sections)

Bake in 400°F (205°C) oven for 20 minutes
(Until bottoms are golden brown)

[kinseysantos]

Just made these. Omg they were to die for. I feel so awesome! My husband can't stop telling me how good they are. Thanks so much.

[davidpipkin]

Grate and freeze the butter before cutting in, works like magic
