Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Gradually add cream, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and gently knead 3 to 4 times until it comes together. Pat dough into a rectangle, about 1 inch thick. Using a sharp knife, cut dough into 8 rectangles. Dip top of each rectangle into melted butter, and place on prepared pan.
Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool on pan for 5 minutes. Serve warm.
