In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until combined.

Use a box grater to grate the butter directly from the freezer. Add it the flour mixture and mix until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

Using a spatula, stir in the milk until just combined. Don’t over mix.

Turn dough out onto a floured surface and gently form the dough together.

Fold the dough in half, turn 90 degrees, then fold in half again. Repeat this 5 times. Use your hands to flatten the dough to about 1” thickness (don’t use a rolling pin).

Use a biscuit cutter or glass to cut out 6-7 biscuits. Work the remaining dough back together and cut another biscuit.

Add biscuit dough to a recipe or you can bake them as is at 425° for about 12 minutes or until tops just start to brown.
