List of Ingredients




2 cups flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup milk



Recipe



Preheat oven to 425.

Stir the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.

Cut in the shortening. (I use my standalone mixer to do this.)

All at once, add the milk and stir until a soft ball is formed.

Turn the dough onto a floured board or counter and knead 20-30 times. Roll or pat the dough to 1/2" thick and cut with a drinking glass or biscuit cutter into circles. Place the circles onto ungreased baking sheet and bake 10-12 minutes.

Options: Just drop the biscuits by the spoonfull if you don't care about the shape.

Cheese Biscuits: Add 1 cup grated cheese before cutting in the shortening and increase the milk to 1 cup.
