You pour a stick of melted butter into the bottom of a baking pan and then add the dough to the pan.
As you spread the dough out to the corners, the butter starts to surround it, so it covers every nook and cranny. You cut the dough into equal squares, so it’s portioned and easy to pull apart later and it heads into the oven.
When it emerges, the biscuits have risen to flavorful, fluffy heights with a lightly craggy surface that’s become golden brown baking in that butter bath.
They’re seriously easy and seriously delicious. I just keep wondering why I wasn’t aware of this technique sooner!
We all love a good biscuit, but I can promise you that once you try a biscuit that’s taken a swim in some butter, it’s going to be hard to go back to anything else.
