Directions

1. For dough
2. To start, cut 1/2 tablespoon off the ends of each butter stick and set aside. Cut a stick of butter in half length-wise and lay the two pieces of butter in between two lightly floured pieces of parchment paper. Pound the butter flat with a rolling pin and roll into a flat rectangle. You want the rectangle to be roughly about 6 inches by 9 inches. Repeat with the other stick of butter and place both in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the dough.
3. In the bowl of your KitchenAid® Stand Mixer with the flat beater attached, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, yeast, salt and cardamom. Add in the reserved pieces of butter to the dry ingredients and work into the flour until pea-sized.
