'Nuff said! My mom's prize-winning biscuit recipe, which doesn't really have a recipe. These are 'about' amounts because she just throws some of this, some of that in a bowl! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
3 c. flour
1 1/2 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. sugar
2/3 c. shortening
milk, about 3/4 c.
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
2. Cut all ingredients except for milk together in a large bowl until you have fine crumbs.
3. Mix in enough milk, about 3/4 cup, until you have a soft dough. Do not overmix.
4. Turn out dough onto a floured board; knead a few times. Roll out to about 3/4-inch thick. Cut out with biscuit cutter, or cut into squares with knife.
5. Placed on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10 - 15 minutes until golden brown. Serve warm.
