Rosas Biscuits Recipe

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces; plus 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick), melted
  • 3/4 cup chilled buttermilk
  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl. Add chilled butter and toss to coat. Work butter into flour mixture with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse meal with several pea-size pieces of butter remaining.
  2. Using a fork, gently mix in buttermilk, then gently knead just until dough comes together (do not overmix).
  3. Pinch off pieces of dough and gently roll into 1″ balls; place on 2 parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing 2″ apart (you should have about 24). If butter softens too much while you are working, chill dough until firm before baking, 15–20 minutes.
  4. Bake biscuits until golden brown, 25–30 minutes. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with more salt. Serve warm.
