INSTRUCTIONS
In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle, combine the flour, sugar,
baking powder, and salt. After the dry ingredients are thoroughly blended,
add the buttermilk, cream and combine. Add the cold b utter in rapid
succession, combining only briefly, to leave the mixture as mealy as
possible.
Scrape this lumpy dough onto a lightly floured board and flatten gently
with a rolling pin into a rectangle shape approximately 1-inch thick. Cut
into 4 or 6 equal rounds. Brush a cookie sheet lightl y with melted butter,
place the rounds on the sheet and place the cookie sheet into the
refrigerator to rest for 20 minutes, while you preheat the oven to 375
degrees. Bake the chilled shortcakes for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they
are nicely browned.
