Cutting in butter is a mixing method in which you gradually break down large pieces of butter into your dry ingredients. This technique reduces gluten development and leads to flakier, more tender baked goods. You will learn how properly cut-in butter, laminate pastry, and roll dough. Samples of sweet cream cheese turnovers, buttermilk biscuits, and fruit scones will be sent home to enjoy.
