How to Make Melt-in-Your-Mouth Biscuits
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking tray or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2: Mix the Dough
In a bowl, gently mix the self-rising flour and heavy cream until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
Step 3: Shape the Biscuits
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently pat it to about 1-inch thickness. Use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut rounds.
Step 4: Bake to Perfection
Place the biscuits close together on the baking tray. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden.
Step 5: Serve Warm
Let them cool slightly and serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
