Instructions
- Prepare Ace Hotel Pittsburgh Mushroom Gravy according to the recipe in the Recipe Box below. Set aside.

Reheat before serving. OR -- If you are experienced and able to juggle separate recipes simultaneously, do the prep before starting the biscuits and cook the gravy while the biscuits are baking. Your choice.)
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a large bowl, add flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and baking soda. Mix to combine.
- Add cold butter. Mix by hand until flour and butter create a crumbly texture.
- Slowly pour in buttermilk, gently mixing just until a workable dough forms.
- Roll dough out to about 1-inch thick, then fold and repeat. Keep a light touch throughout to ensure tender, flaky biscuits. Fold and roll no more than 10 times to maintain the right texture.
- Cut into biscuits using a ring cutter or a knife.
- Place biscuits on a greased baking sheet.
- Place in preheated oven. Bake for 5 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake for another 5 - 6 minutes, until golden and fluffy.
