Baking Powder Biscuits

List of Ingredients

Baking Powder Biscuits

2 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
4 heaping tbsp shortening

3/4 c milk




Recipe



Preheat to 450

Blend the flour, salt, baking powder. Cut in the shortening with a pastry cutter until large crumbs form.

Add milk, stir carefully. Genly knead.

Place dough on a floured surface and roll to 3/4 inch thickness. Cut with biscuit cutter.

Dough scraps may be re-rolled and cut again.

Place on ungreased baking pan and bake for 12 to 15 minutes.

I always double this. Be careful not to roll the biscuits too thin!
