Add buttermilk and whirl in to the mix.
Knead the dough until smooth - If you have a large food processor,
you can knead it in, otherwise remove and knead about 5 minutes on a
board coated with flour. On the floured board, roll out the dough
to about 3/4 inch thickness.
Use a floured cookie cutter (2 1/2 - 3 inch round) to cut out the
biscuits.
Place on greased cookie sheets, 1 inch apart. Prick tops of
biscuits with a fork.
Cover biscits with a cloth and let stir for 30-45 minutes.
They will not rise to much at this point, but, will rise more
during baking.
Preheat oven to 400 F. Brush the biscits with melted buter and bake
for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
Serve Warm.
