Southern Biscuits
Description:
Great for biscuits and gravy!
Ingredients:
1 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cups (1 stick) butter
1/4 cups milk (may need more)
Directions:
Sift dry ingredients into mixing bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture,
until mixture looks like "meal". Stir in milk. (If dough does not seem pliable,
add 2 tablespoons more milk to make soft dough.) Mix lightly
(too much handling makes tough biscuits.) On ungreased cookie sheet drop
from teaspoon 1 inch or 2 inch biscuits 1/2 inch apart.
Bake 1 inch - 8 minutes or until golden brown - yields 20.
Bake 2 inch - 10 minutes or until golden brown - yields 10.
Quadruple recipe when baking biscuits for freezing.
Decrease baking time by 2 minutes (do not brown).
Cool, freeze on cookie sheet, then place in freezer bags.
