For the flakiest biscuits, use very cold butter and buttermilk. Avoid overmixing the dough, as this will result in tough biscuits. If you don't have buttermilk, you can make a substitute by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to a liquid measuring cup, then filling with milk to the 3/4 cup line. Let stand for 5 minutes before using. For a richer flavor, brush the tops of the biscuits with melted butter before baking. These biscuits are best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat before serving.
