INSTRUCTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or wax
paper.
2. In a bowl combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly. Cream in
the butter with your fingers or a fork, until the mixture resembles coarse
crumbs. Add the buttermilk a little at a time and, using your hands or a
fork, work it in just until it's thoroughly incorporated and you have a
smooth ball of dough.
Don't overwork or overhandle the dough.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough with a rolling pin to
a circle about 7 inches in diameter, 1/2 inch thick. Using a small round
cookie cutter or the rim of a shot glass, press out twelve 1" rounds. If
you like, you can reroll the leftover dough to make more, but the texture
of these will be denser than the others.
4. Place the dough rounds on the baking sheet and bake until golden on top
and brown on the bottom, for about 15 minutes. Serve warm.
