BUTTERMILK BISCUITS
1 3/4 c Flour
2 tb Baking powder
1 ts Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 c Butter
3/4 c Buttermilk
Preheat
In a mixing bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Cut in the butter, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in
the center and pour in the milk all at once. Stir just until a shaggy dough
is formed.
On a lightly floured surface, gently knead the dough 3 or 4 times. Pat out
the dough 1/2inch thickness. With a 3inch round biscuit cutter or glass
dipped in flour, cut out the dough and transfer to a baking sheet. (You can
also cut out squares with a sharp paring knife.) Bake 10 to 12 minutes,
until golden brown and serve hot.
Yield: about 6 3inch biscuits
