These Bee Some Good Biscuits!

• Honey Glaze
• 2/3 cup Honey, (plus extra set aside for filling)
• 1/4 cup Light Brown Sugar
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 1/4 teaspoon Almond Extract (optional)
• Flaky Biscuits
• 2 1/4 cups Cake Flour (A little extra for dusting)
• 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 8 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (1 stick) Keep cold
• 3/4 cup Buttermilk
• 1/4 cup Honey

1. Place all of the ingredients in a small bowl, and mix well.
2. Set aside at room temperature.
3. Set you oven to 450 degrees fahrenheit
4. For this recipe I used a 9" cake pan. You can, however, use a 9" pie tin or a baking sheet. Whichever one you choose, grease with cooking spray or ,butter and flour, and set aside.
5. Get a large mixing bowl and sift together all of your dry ingredients: cake flour, baking powder, and salt.
6. Grab your butter out of the refrigerator and cut into small cubes. Place your butter cubes in the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter, or two forks, and work the butter into the flour until the butter cubes have been evenly reduced to a small pea size. I like to test when my flour is ready by grabbing a hand full of flour and squeezing it. If after you let go the shape holds, you have got it going on!!!
7. Now measure out your wet ingredients: buttermilk and honey. Pour the two liquids into you butter flour mixture and mix together with your hand, or a large spoon, until you just form a ball. The dough will be a little wet. Be careful to not over mix in this stage of the dough! That is a big no no in the biscuit world.
8. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes
9. Dust a smooth kitchen surface with a loose handful of cake flour and place your refrigerated dough in the center. Roll out the dough till it is about 1/2"-3/4" thick.
10. Cut out your biscuits by using a biscuit cutter, or a a brandy glass works just fine ;). Place you biscuits in your greased pan or baking sheet and bake for 17-19 minutes, or until golden brown.
11. Once out of the oven let cool for 5 minutes. You can either punch a hole in the center with your thumb, or if these are for formal guests, you can use the stem of a fork to gently make a well in the center of your biscuits.
12. Fill the cavities with honey, and then brush the glaze generously and completely over the tops. It is critical that the biscuits still be warm when you brush the glaze on. This will ensure that beautiful shiny effect !!!
13. Let cool another 5 min and enjoy!!!!
14. Can be stored at room temperature in an air tight container for up to two days.
