Baking recipes that require only a few ingredients demand PERFECT technique. This biscuit recipe will yield great biscuits if 1) you don't overmix (use a fork or your hands), 2) remember to use AP and not self-rising flour, 3) don't substitute milk for buttermilk, 4) a brush of melted butter while baking is very nice, and 5) don't neglect the salt (its that important!). Also to expand on note #1 above, I press the dough in a large square and cut the biscuits square. That way you don't have to keep re-forming, and thus overworking, the dough remanants to cut more perfect circles. Finally, I freeze most of the squares between pieces of parchment and bake them fresh in the morning.
