Lightly grease a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 450ºF.

Combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt in a bowl.

Add the cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or 2 forks to cut the butter into the flour until a coarse meal forms.

Add 8 tablespoons of evaporated milk and use a fork to mix it into the flour to form the dough.

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and form it into a disc with your hands. Use a floured rolling pin to quickly roll the dough once or twice until it's about 1 inch thick.

Use a 2¾-inch cookie cutter to cut the dough into rounds. Roll the excess dough into another 1-inch thick disc and continue cutting out biscuits until no more dough remains. This recipe yields 8 biscuits.

Arrange the biscuits to the prepared baking sheet and transfer to the preheated oven for 10 minutes until golden brown on the bottom.

Serve the biscuits warm with butter and jam and enjoy!
