I get this recipe from my Pillsbury Family Cookbook that was published in 1963. It was my mothers, a graduation present I believe, and I refer to it on a regular basis for the classic preparation of many foods.
Ingredients:
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shortening
1 cup milk
Directions:
1. Sift Flour Salt and Baking Powder into mixing bowl.
2. Cut in shortening until the particles are fine.
3. Add milk all at once and stir just until dough clings together and flour disappears.
4. Drop by spoonfulls into greased muffin cups (2/3 full).
5. Bake 450 deg for 12/15 min.
