    List of Ingredients




    2 cups all-purpose flour
    2 1/2 tsp baking powder
    1/2 tsp baking soda
    Dash salt
    1 tbsp granulated sugar
    1/2 cup butter, margarine or shortening
    3/4 cup buttermilk
    1 tbsp melted butter
    All-purpose flour, optional

    Recipe



    Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a mixing bowl.

    Cut in butter or shortening with pastry blender until mixture resembles
    coarse crumbs.

    Add buttermilk. Mix quickly to make a soft dough.

    Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead a few times to make a soft
    dough, don't overknead or the biscuits will turn hard and dry.

    Roll out to a 6 by 6 inch square. Place on ungreased baking sheet.

    With knife, cut dough into 12 even portions. Do not separate.

    Bake at 400 degrees until golden about 15 minutes. Dust with flour, if
    desired, when biscuits come out of the oven.

    Serve piping hot with butter, jam and/or honey.
