1 cup all purpose flour
1 cup cake flour (very important)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut in 1/4 inch cubes or grated when cold.
3/4 cup cold buttermilk
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Blend all dry ingredients. Scatter butter on top and combine with mixer. Stir in buttermilk with a rubber spatula until a soft, slight sticky dough ball forms.
Put the dough ball on a floured counter. Use a sharp knife to cut dough into 12 pieces. Shape each piece into a ball and place on ungreased baking sheet.
Bake dough balls 10 -12 mins. until they become golden brown biscuits.
Eat with butter, jam, gravy, and joy.
