Honey Butter Buttermilk Biscuits

Instructions:

1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
2. Add the chilled cubed butter and use a pastry cutter to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized chunks of butter remaining.
3. Pour in the cold buttermilk and stir with a fork just until a shaggy dough forms.
4. Turn the dough onto a floured surface. Gently pat it into a rectangle and fold it over itself 5-6 times to create lamination layers.
5. Pat the dough to a 1-inch thickness. Press a 2-inch biscuit cutter straight down without twisting to cut the biscuits.
6. Place biscuits touching each other on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 425°F (218°C) for 12-15 minutes until tops are mahogany-colored.
7. While biscuits bake, whisk together softened butter, honey, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
