2 cups flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 tablespoons shortening
3/4 cup milk
15 cubes sugar
1/8 cup orange juiceRecipe
Sift dry ingredients; add shortening and mix in with fork. Add liquid slowly to make a soft dough; turn out on a floured board. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut out with small biscuit cutter and put into a greased pan. Press gently into each biscuit a loaf of sugar which has been dipped well in orange juice. Grate a little orange rind on each and bake in hot oven at 475 degrees, about 15 minutes. Makes 15 biscuits. Note: a loaf of sugar now equals 1 cube of sugar.
