      1. Prepare the Biscuits (if using homemade):
      2. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
      3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
      4. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your hands until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
      5. Gradually stir in the cold buttermilk, mixing just until the dough comes together.
      6. Turn the dough onto a floured surface, gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle, and fold it over 3 times.
      7. Cut out biscuits using a round cutter and place them on the baking sheet.
      8. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown. Let them cool slightly.
