Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups flour
3 tsp. baking powder
2 tbsp. shortening
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. salt
also, you will need a pastry blender

Directions:

Oven to 450 degrees.
Sift the flour in a bowl.
Stir in the baking powder and salt.
Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture looks like peas.
Make a well (kind of dig a hole in the center of the bowl till you can see the bottom) and stir in the milk with a fork.
The dough should be making a ball by now. Knead it three times (more if needed).
Press to one inch flat. Cut into biscuits.
Bake for ten minutes and enjoy!!!
I'll upload a photo next time I make them
