2 cups Carbquik, 6 ounces 1 tablespoon baking powder Pinch salt, optional (see comment below) 4 tablespoons cold butter, cut in small bits 1/4 cup heavy cream * 1/4 cup water Lightly spoon the Carbquik into a measuring cup and level off. Do not tap it. Place in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk in the baking powder and salt, if using. Cut the cold butter into the Carbquik until it looks like coarse meal. Mix the cream and water; pour into the dry mixture. Mix until the dough forms and comes together, but do not overwork. The dough should be somewhat loose and sticky. On parchment paper, very gently pat or rollthe dough to 3/4-inch thick. It helps to sprinkle about 2 tablespoons of Carbquik over the top of the dough to prevent sticking. Cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place the biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet and bake at 400º 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Makes 14 biscuits Can be frozen * Or, use 1/2 cup Carb Countdown whole milk and omit water. Per Biscuit: 82 Calories; 7g Fat; 3g Protein; 7g Carbohydrate; 5g Dietary Fiber; 2g Net Carbs
