How to Make Amish Triple Butter Biscuits

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Place 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in a 7x11 inch baking dish or 10-inch round cast iron skillet. Place in the preheated oven to melt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 4 teaspoons baking powder.
  4. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg with 1 cup milk. Stir into the flour mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Remove the baking dish from the oven. The butter should be melted and slightly browned.
  7. Using a large cookie scoop or ice cream scoop, gently drop spoonfuls of dough into the melted butter in the baking dish, arranging them close together.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and cooked through.
