the dough just forms (do not over mix or your biscuit will be dense and not
flaky)
5. Gently roll out the dough to 1 1/4 inch thickness
6. Cut into 2 1/2 inch squares and brush with the clarified butter and season
with the fleur de sel
7. Bake at 375 degrees F for approximately 12-15 minutes or until golden brown
