List of Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. white sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup milk
Recipe
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually stir in milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Turn out onto a floured surface and knead 15 to 20 times. Pat or roll dough out to 1 inch thick. Cut biscuits with a large cutter or juice glass dipped in flour. Repeat until all dough is used. Brush off excess flour, and place biscuits on ungreased baking sheet.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until edges begin to brown.
Makes 6 huge biscuits (or more small ones).
Dough can be made up to a day ahead and refrigerated, wrapped in greased foil.
