Ingredients

2 cups flour
2 tsp. sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, cubed
5 Tbsp. cold butter, divided
3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk

Steps:

Heat oven to 450°F.
Combine first 5 ingredients in large bowl. Cut in cream cheese and 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp.) butter with pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add buttermilk; stir just until mixture forms soft dough.
Place dough on lightly floured surface; sprinkle lightly with additional flour. Roll into 1/2-inch-thick rectangle; fold crosswise in half. Repeat rolling and folding 3 more times.
Roll dough into 8x6-inch rectangle; cut into 12 squares. Place, 1/2 inch apart, on baking sheet.
Bake 12 to 15 min. or until golden brown. Melt remaining butter; brush onto tops of biscuits. Cool slightly.
