Nutritional information is based on 2 biscuits
In small bowl, mix yeast, warm water, and 1/4t sugar. Let stand 10
min or until foamy.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, with fork, stir flour, 2T sugar, baking
powder, baking soda, and salt. With pastry blender or 2 knives used
scissors-fashion, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse
crumbs. Make a well in center; add buttermilk and yeast mixture. Stir
with fork to mix well, then continue stirring to incorporate flour
mixture until dough forms. Cover loosely with plastic wrap; let dough
rise in warm place for 1 hr.
On lightly floured surface, with lightly floured hands, pat dough
into 9" by 12" (1/4" thick) rectangle. Fold dough in half to form 9"
by 6" (1/2" thick) rectangle. With sharp chef's knife, cut dough into
1-1/2" squares, pressing blade straight down. Transfer to ungreased
cookie sheet, spacing 1/2" apart. Cover with plastic wrap and
refrigerate at least overnight or up to 3 days.
When ready to bake, let dough stand at room temperature 1 hr. Preheat
oven to 350F. Bake 25 to 30 min or until golden brown. Serve warm.
Biscuits can be cooled completely and frozen in an airtight container
up to 1 week. Reheat in 350F oven 10 min or until heated through.
