Ingredients

• 4 cups all-purpose flour , plus more for work surface
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 0.75 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 4 ounces cold cream cheese
• 1.5 cups whole buttermilk

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. 2 Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl until combined. Add butter and cream cheese and mix in with a pastry cutter or two forks until mixture is crumbly and resembles a coarse meal.
3. 3 Pour in the 1 1/2 cups buttermilk and gently stir until mixture resembles a shaggy, slightly sticky dough.
4. 4 Turn dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead a few times to combine. Lightly coat hands and rolling pin with flour; gently pat and roll dough to 3/4-inch-thickness, adding more flour as needed to keep dough from sticking.
5. 5 Use a 3-inch biscuit cutter, dipping biscuit cutter in flour between cuts, to cut into 12 biscuits, rerolling dough scraps once. Place biscuits onto prepared baking sheet about 3/4-inch apart. Brush tops of biscuits with remaining 1 tablespoon buttermilk.
6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes. Serve warm.
