Preheat oven to 425°F // 400° with convection fan // 200°C // Gas mark 6.

Peel Russet potatoes and cut into 2-inch pieces.

Add potatoes to a medium pot filled with cold water. Bring to a boil and simmer until potatoes are easily pierced with a knife, about 12 minutes.

While potatoes are cooking, grate butter using a box grater. Use the side with the largest holes. Place grated butter in the freezer.

Drain potatoes and press through a potato ricer. Lay the potatoes out on a baking sheet to cool. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and rosemary.

Add cooled, riced potatoes to flour mixture and using your fingers, lightly toss the mixture until combined.

Reserve 2 tbsp. of Parmesan for tops of biscuits, set aside. Add remaining cheese to flour mixture.

Add frozen butter to flour mixture, and using your fingers, lightly toss the mixture until combined. (*work quickly, you don't want the butter to get too soft)

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add 1/2 cup milk. Stir with a fork until a crumbly dough forms.

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat it out until it is about 1/2" thick. Fold it over (like a book) and pat it out once more until it is roughly 1/2" thick.

Using a round cutter (cookie cutter, biscuit cutter, drinking glass, etc.), cut biscuits out by pushing straight down, DO NOT TWIST.

Place biscuits on parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with remaining milk and sprinkle with remaining parmesan,

Bake for 12 - 14 minutes, rotating pan halfway through baking time.
