Yup, them there is Biscuits

August 3, 2008

What is it about a home made biscuit that starts making the mouth water? I don’t know either cept to say that they’re damned tasty. Pretty simple to make and the results?…. ZOMG FEED ME!!

So here is what we’ll need:

2 C Flour

4 t. Baking Powder

3 T. Butter

1/3 t. salt

3/4 C Milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees

In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients well. Use a pastry blender to blend the butter in to the flour. You know it’s well blended when it looks like a bowl of flour pellets. Slowly add the milk and stir well. Now it’s going to look like a big gooey ball. At this point I place a piece of newspaper on the counter and coat it with flour, and dump the dough onto it. Coat your hands in flower and kneed the dough for about a minute. ( for all you folks that say don’t over handle your dough…. I got something you can handle =-) This i my blog ). Now the dough should be smooth. Roll out to about 1/2″ thick. Grab ya out a water glass/coffee cup and coat the rim in flour. Cut out your biscuits and placed on a greased cast Iron skillet or other baking dish. Place em kinda close to each other so they rise up ( and don’t spread out and get hard ). Give em a light topping with melted butter and bake for 15 min.

Enjoy
