Easy Drop Biscuits

Preheat the oven to 425°F. In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Grate the butter and dump it into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a fork to mix in the cold butter pieces until the mixture resembles a coarse meal with little pea size or smaller lumps throughout.

Gradually stir in milk – do not dump all the milk in at once! Add just enough milk until the dough pulls away from the side of the bowl. It should still look somewhat dry and be a bit sticky.

Scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. (The medium scoop in this set is perfect for this.) Bake for 12-14 minutes in the preheated oven, until the biscuits are golden brown.
