Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Cut in ½ cup of cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in ¾ cup of milk until a sticky dough forms. Turn the dough onto a floured surface, knead gently for about 1 minute, then roll out to 1-inch thick.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut the dough into rounds and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Gather any scraps, re-roll, and cut additional biscuits. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and fluffy.
- In a large skillet, heat over medium heat, adding 1 pound of spicy chorizo. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sprinkle ¼ cup of all-purpose flour over the chorizo and stir to combine. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk, ensuring no lumps, and cook until gravy thickens, about 4-5 minutes. Season with black pepper.
- Remove biscuits from the oven, let them cool slightly. To serve, split each biscuit in half and ladle chorizo gravy over the top.

Notes
Using cold ingredients ensures flaky biscuits, and avoid overmixing to prevent tough texture. Adjust gravy thickness with milk to preference.
