Based on Binging with Babish KFC biscuits. https://www.babi.sh/recipes/KFC meal but that’s pay walled. Ffs Babish, he’s really fallen off. Pay wall, seriously? Put it into reader mode to get this.
FOR THE Buttermilk Biscuits
2 sticks frozen Butter aka 1c 1 ¼ cups Buttermilk 15 ounces All Purpose Flour 2 tbsp Sugar 4 tsp Baking Powder ½ tsp Baking Soda ½ tsp Kosher Salt
- Start by combining all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt in a bowl. Whisk with a fork until homogeneous.
- By using the slightly larger holes on a cheese grater, grate frozen butter.
- Add butter to the flour mixture, and mix around until all the pieces are coated.
- Add buttermilk to the mixture and give it a good stir.
- Remove the mixture from the bowl and continue to try to coax together into a sort of rectangle. Using a generously floured rolling pin, roll it out to a 16 by 9 inch rectangle and fold in thirds like a letter.Watch the episode above if you need help!
- Repeat this process five times.
- Place the dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm up.
- Roll the dough out to a roughly 9x9 square-ish shape, and trim off the edges using a very sharp knife that was dusted in flour.
- Cut cleanly into 9 square biscuits.
- Place back on the parchment-lined baking sheet and brush with butter.
- Bake the biscuits at 400°F for 20-25 minutes.
- Cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes

Those are biscuits. They’re even good if not overbaked and have plenty of fat in the recipe.
