A biscuit my grandmother used to make. I remember her rolling it out and cutting it with one of her aluminum glasses.
Ingredients
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup milk
Directions
In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the milk and knead the dough gently.
Roll out to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2 inch biscuit cutter or you can use the aluminum glass. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
