My Kids Devour These 4-Ingredient Butter Dip Biscuits Every Single Time
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prepare
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line your pan with foil and lightly grease it.
Step 2: Melt the Butter
Place butter in the pan and let it melt in the oven until bubbling.
Step 3: Make the Batter
Mix flour and sugar, then stir in milk until just combined. Don’t overmix!
Step 4: Assemble
Pour batter over the melted butter and gently spread it out.
Step 5: Score
Lightly mark into 9 squares—this makes cutting easier later.
Step 6: Bake
Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and fluffy.
Step 7: Rest & Serve
Let sit for 5–10 minutes, then cut and serve warm.
