INGREDIENTS
- 1/4 cup Shortening
- 2 cups All purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 3 teaspoons Baking powder
- 3/4 cups Milk
INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oven to 450°
Cut shortening into flour, sugar, baking powder and salt with pastry blender until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stir in just enough milk so dough leave side of bowl and rounds up into a ball. (Too much milk makes dough sticky; not enough makes biscuits dry.)
Turn dough onto lightly floured surface. Knead lightly 20 to 25 times, about 30 seconds. Roll or pat 1/2" thick. Cut with floured 2 1/2" biscuit cutter. Place on ungreased cookie sheet about 1" apart for crusty sides, touching for soft sides. Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet.
NOTES
Buttermilk Biscuits: Decrease baking powder to 2 tsp and add 1/4 tsp baking soda with salt. Substitute buttermilk for the milk. (If buttermilk is thick, add slightly more than 3/4 cup.)
