Southern Biscuits

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter (cold) (or shortening)
3/4 cup milk or buttermilk






Directions:
Mix flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles crumbs. Stir in milk just until combined, make certain not to over work the mixture, it should be a bit lumpy and not completely mixed.

Turn onto floured surface and roll (or use finger tips) into 3/4 inch thickness. Cut in circles using a cookie cutter (or cup works fine also). Place evenly on a greased baking sheet or glass dish.

Bake at 425 farenheit for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown on top. Serve hot with butter and honey.
