  • Work the dough quickly: Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Work the dough just until it comes together.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help to develop the flavor and make the biscuits more flaky.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: A hot oven will help to create a golden brown crust and fluffy interior.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Cream biscuits are best served warm out of the oven. You can also reheat them in a warm oven or toaster oven.
