I enjoy making biscuits almost as much as I enjoy making pound cakes. And, I like making pound cakes! I have tested all the classics, Whipping Cream, Sour Cream, Cream Cheese, Eggnog, Million Dollar, Mile High, Blue Ribbon and more for my Pound Cakes Reviewed Series.

As well, I’ve shared several biscuit recipes with you. (See some of them pictured below.) Now, I found a new biscuit recipe that I’m in love with. Cream Cheese Buttermilk Biscuits are buttery and flaky. They had both cream cheese and butter in them making them super flaky and buttery.

This is a great basic biscuit recipe. They are perfect for a savory sandwich, slathered in jam, or served on the side with your meal.

Cream Cheese Buttermilk Biscuits Tips

  1. First of all, your butter and cream cheese must be cold. Place them in the freezer for 30 minutes per recipes instructions.
  2. Measure your flour correctly using the ‘spoon and level’ method. I wrote this post on how to measure flour correctly. If needed, you may want to refresh the method. Measuring flour incorrectly can result in as much as 150% more flour than is called for!
  3. Additionally, use good quality ingredients. I recommend using a name-brand butter and flour.
  4. I recommend using real butter, not margarine or butter substitute
  5. As well, use regular cream cheese, not lower-fat varieties.
  6. Finally, the last tip I have for making these biscuits, be certain to cut the butter and cream cheese into the flour really well. You don’t want a big clump of cream cheese in the baked biscuit. If you were to have a larger piece of butter, it would melt in the baking process. However, a cube of cream cheese will not melt. Then you son bites into it, makes a terrible face, and refuses to eat any more. I may or may not know that to be a fact. 🙁

Buttery and flaky, these biscuits make a tasty egg and bacon sandwich or slathered with apple jelly. Cream cheese and butter give them a nice flavor and soft texture. Kneading and folding the dough gives you those beautiful layers!

    Have made this recipe several times with and without various additions such as dried cranberries and/or grated orange peel. Haven’t tried cheddar and scallions yet but it’s on the to-do list. I do wonder whether the addition of still more cheese will send our cholesterol levels overboard!! My husband and son cannot get enough of them and i always have to double the recipe. They are actually disappointed when I bake other items.

    Thank you very much for sharing this recipe

    The biscuits look too dry. You should have brushed melted butter on them, even before you took these pictures. People eat with their eyes first!

        I think the biscuits are beautiful and look delicious ! They look so yummy, I’m going to try them for the holidays. Love the layers! They don’t look dry nor do they need a butter wash, as suggested. Thanks for the recipe! Looking forward to making them!

    This sounds interesting. Cream cheese should make them have a wonderful texture.
    Thanks for the tips.
