2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
9. Remove from the oven and let the biscuits cool slightly before serving.
