Whipped Cream Biscuits
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup cake flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 34 teaspoon salt
- 1 13 cups cold heavy cream
- Heat the oven to 400F and get out a large, light-colored baking sheet.
- Sift the flours, sugar, baking powder, and salt into a large mixing bowl.
- Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream in a medium-size bowl until it thickens, but not enough to hold soft peaks.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients, then pour in the cream.
- With a wooden spoon, stir briskly just until the dough coheres.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface.
- With floured hands, knead the dough 3 or 4 times, then pat 3/4 to 1 inch thick.
- Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter, cut the dough into rounds and transfer them to the baking sheet, leaving room between them.
- Gather the dough scraps and cut them into rounds as well.
- Bake the biscuits until light golden brown, about 15 to 17 minutes.
- Transfer the biscuits to a cloth-lined basket and serve as soon as possible.
- Makes about 12 to 14 biscuits.
