Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a cast iron skillet or baking dish. We also prefer to use bacon grease for better crush and flavor.
Sift the flour into a medium bowl. Stir in the heavy cream, until combined.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Flour your hands, and knead the dough a few times. The outside of the dough shouldn’t be sticky, but the inside should still have some moisture.
Roll the dough out to about ½-inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter, cut the biscuits out and place in the skillet or dish. Brush with a little additional whipping cream.
Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until a light golden brown. Brush a little melted better on top (optional) and serve.
Notes
You can make the dough ahead of time, cut the biscuits out and freeze. Bake them frozen, but your bake time may increase.
