Ingredients

2 cups self rising flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons confectioners sugar
1/2 cup solid vegetable shortening (such as Crisco)
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
Melted butter (about 1/4 cup)

Cooking Instructions

Stir together the flour, baking powder & 10x sugar. Cut in the shortening until pieces are about the size of grains of rice. Stir in the buttermilk. Knead a few times, roll out on a floured board or counter top to 3/4 inch thickness. Be careful not to work dough too much or add too much flour, or you’ll have dry biscuits. Cut with an oversized biscuit cutter (about 3 inches). Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake about 12 minutes in a preheated 450 degree oven.
