Biscuits

Ingredients:
2 cups butter, cut into 1/2 inch cubes and frozen
2-1/4 cups flour, plus extra flour for rolling/shaping.
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
1 cup plain yogurt
2 eggs
2 tbsp water

Directions:
1)  Heat oven to 400 degrees. 
2)  Prepare a rolling surface and rolling pin with a little 
    bit of flour and set aside.
3)  In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt, 
    until well combined. Set aside.
4)  In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt and 1 large egg,
    until evenly combined. Set aside.
5)  Remove butter from the freezer and working quickly, cut it into
    the flour mixture in the bowl, until you have lumps the size of 
    marbles (about 1/4 inch in size). 
6)  Add the yogurt/egg mixture all at once, stirring quickly to 
    combine.
7)  Lightly flour a nonstick rolling surface, using about 1/4 cup of 
    flour. Turn the sticky biscuit mass out onto the rolling surface 
    and dust with a bit of additional flour, about 1-2 tbsp or so. 
    Working quickly, using your hands, pat the dough into a rough 
    rectangle about 1/2 inch thick.
8)  Using your hands or a spatula, fold the dough into thirds, as if 
    you were folding a letter. 
9)  Take your rolling pin and roll the dough out to 1/2 inch thick 
    again.
10) Fold the dough again as if folding a letter and roll out again to 
    1/2 inch thick.
11) Fold the dough one last time as if folding a letter. 
12) Roll the dough out one last time to 3/4 – 1 inch thick. 
13) Using a 4 inch biscuit cutter, cut biscuits from the rolled out 
    dough. 
    DO NOT TWIST THE CUTTER, but rather press straight down and lift 
    straight up for best results. 
14) Push the dough out of the cutter and place the finished biscuit on
    the baking sheet. Repeat, cutting as closely as possible to prevent 
    excessive scraps. Gather remaining scraps together and press together
    to make one or two final biscuits – these will not rise in the same
    way or have the same layers as the original biscuits. 
14) Brush the top of the biscuits with a wash made from 1 egg and 2 tbsp
    water.
15) Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown, puffed, and flaky. 
16) Remove from the oven and serve either warm or at room temperature.
