Cream of tartar 1/2 teaspoon
Salt 1/2 teaspoon

Preheat oven to 415°F (215°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Cut in chilled butter using a pastry blender, your hands, or a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add milk and stir with a fork until the dough comes together.
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough until smooth.
Roll out the dough to a 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into 3-inch biscuits using a biscuit cutter or a knife.
