Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Sift dry ingredients into lg bowl; cut in Crisco.
  2. Stir in buttermilk to make soft dough, mixing just enough for ingredients to hold together, not into a smooth ball. Overworking the dough will produce tough biscuits.
  3. Turn out onto floured surface. I use waxed or parchment paper, which I then flour. Pat the dough gently to flatten the mound of dough. Flatten only enough so that you can fold the dough over. The easiest way to do this is to lift one side of the waxed paper with one hand and use your other to gently lower the dough onto itself. Works like a charm, believe me. Next, gently roll the two layers of dough out enough to fold and roll again. Do this 4-5 times total; then roll out dough to 1/2” thick.
  4. Cut with cutter and place on ungreased baking sheet.
  5. Bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
