In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
Add the butter and use a pastry cutter to combine until mixture becomes course crumbs.
Whisk egg into the buttermilk and stir into biscuit mixture.
Place mixture onto a floured work surface and form into a rectangle that is 1-inch thick.
Cut into circles using a biscuit cutter dipped in flour and place on prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle with course decorating sugar and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until tops are lightly browned.
Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
