Ingredients

2 1/2 cups White Lily all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface 

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder 

1/2 teaspoon salt 

2 cups heavy cream 

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Pour in heavy cream, and stir with a wooden spoon until combined. The dough will still be wet and tacky.

Turn out dough onto a well-floured work surface, and pat into a square about 1/2 inch thick. Let rest about 5 minutes.

Using a 2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 24 rounds. If desired, gather together scraps; pat into a square, and cut out more rounds. Place on a baking sheet, and bake until golden on the tops, 12 to 14 minutes. Remove from the oven, and immediately brush the tops with butter. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly. Serve warm or at room temperature.
