buttermilk heavy cream? isn't that just sour cream or creme fraiche?

You make an interesting point! Acidifying heavy cream in the way I described (which ultimately didn't impact the recipe in the positive or negative) would be more akin to how you would make homemade creme fraiche. I was trying out a sort of "quick sour", by letting the vinegar sit with the heavy cream for about 10 minutes. Creme fraiche that you make at home by combining heavy cream with vinegar, lemon juice, or buttermilk would mature over the course of 24-48 hours at room temperature and be thicker, more funky. And creme fraiche that you purchase in the store has the bonus of added bacterial cultures, which makes for a different product than something you could make at home, and is much more delicious than the quickie version I was experimenting with :)

Yogurt is the acidified cream you were looking for. I grew up in the south and biscuit wisdom is in the air. But my mother was a hippie so there was always homemade yogurt. I used flour yogurt butter salt and baking powder. Heavenly every time. These look tasty though. Many roads to Heaven!
