    WORLD WIDE WEB CIRCLE OF FRIENDS COOKBOOK

    Recipe Link: http://groups.msn.com/FullCircleofFriends

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup (250 mL) baking powder
    pinch salt
    2 tablespoons (25 mL) cold butter or shortening
    1/3 to 1/2 cup (75 to 125 mL) milk
    Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C)

    Recipe



    Procedure

    Mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Cut butter into small pieces and add to flour mixture. Blend with a knife or fingers until pieces are the size of small peas.

    Pour almost all the milk over flour mixture. Stir and mix with a fork. Add more milk if necessary. Dump flour mixture onto lightly floured (clean) countertop, knead (mix and turn with our hands) three or four times, until dough can be patted into a circle.

    Cut into biscuits with a floured cookie cutter or small can with top and bottom removed.

    Place biscuits on pizza pan or small cookie sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 12 minutes.

    Makes four or five biscuits; double the recipe for eight to ten biscuits.
