McDonald's Biscuit Recipe
McDonald's biscuits have that unmistakable light, flaky texture that melts in your mouth. And...you guys can totally make these at home!The trick to getting that soft, layered crumb is using really cold butter and handling the dough as little as possible.I always freeze my butter and grate it straight into the flour—it blends in quickly without warming up, which keeps the biscuits from getting dense.A touch of buttermilk brings just the right amount of tenderness, while baking at a high temperature ensures they rise beautifully.The result is golden on the outside, airy on the inside, and just the right amount of richness without being too heavy.Serve them warm with butter and honey, or use them as the base for a hearty breakfast sandwich!

- 2/3 cup Buttermilk
- 1/4 cup Butter melted
- 1 tbsp Sugar

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 450°F.
