Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly. Cream in the shortening with your fingers or a fork, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk a little at a time and, using your hands or a fork, work it in just until its thoroughly incorporated and you have a smooth ball of dough. Do not overwork or overhandle the dough.

Lightly flour surface, roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a circle about ??-inches in diameter, 1/2-inch thick. Using a small round cookie cutter or the rim of a shot glass, press out twelve 1-inch rounds. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake until golden-brown, about 15 minutes.

This recipe yields 1 dozen biscuits.
