A light fluffy biscuit- perfect with either gravy, butter and jam, or maple syrup...mmmm
Ingredients:
2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup milk
Directions:
1. Combine dry ingredients.
2. Cut in shortening.
3. add just enough milk to make the mixture moist, you probably won't use the full 1/2 cup.
4. Knead lightly until smooth. Don't over do it. If you do, you will have a hard flat biscut instead of one that is light and fluffy.
5. Press dough flat to 1/2 inch. Cut into 2 inch circles.
6. Place biscuits shoulder to shoulder on ungreased baking sheet.
7. Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes.
