1–2 dashes pure vanilla extract Vanilla whipped cream,

PREPARATION
1. To make the biscuits, in a food processor, combine both flours, baking powder, kosher salt, sugar, and baking soda, and pulse a few times to mix
well. Scatter the butter cubes over
the flour mixture and pulse until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Dump the mixture onto a floured work surface and make a well in the center. Pour the buttermilk into the well, then, using your hands, work the buttermilk into the flour mixture until a loose, ragged dough forms. Cut the dough into thirds, stack the pieces one on top of the other, and roll out the dough 1 inch thick.
2. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Using a cutter in any shape and size you like, cut out as many biscuits as possible. Arrange them on the prepared sheet pan, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Gather up the dough scraps, press them together, roll out 1 inch thick, cut out more biscuits, and add them to the pan. Wrap the pan in plastic wrap and place it in the freezer until the biscuits are frozen solid, at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
3. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Unwrap the sheet pan and bake the biscuits from frozen, rotating the pan front to back halfway through baking, until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately brush the tops with melted butter and finish with a sprinkle of Maldon salt.
4. While the biscuits are baking, prepare the berries. If using strawberries, hull them and cut them as you like. Leave raspberries, blueberries, or other small berries whole. Put the berries into a bowl, add the maple syrup, Grand Marnier, and vanilla, and toss to mix well.
5. To serve, cut the warm biscuits in half and place them in individual shallow bowls. Spoon the berries around or over the biscuits and finish each serving with a dollop of whipped cream.
