Directions:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Mix dry ingredients.
- Add butter and shortening to the dry ingredients and work into flour with a pastry cutter or a fork (or even your fingers) until the flour resembles course crumbs.
- Mix milk and sour cream.
- Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the milk and sour cream mixture.
- Stir very lighly, only until mixed. DO NOT OVER STIR! This will result in tough biscuits. As soon as a dough ball forms, stop stirring. The dough will be very, very sticky. This is good. It means very moist biscuits.
- Turn the dough ball onto a very well floured surface, dust the top of the dough ball with flour and gently fold the dough onto itself 5 or 6 times.
- Press down or use a rolling pin to make the pile of dough 1 thick. Use a two inch cutter to cut out 12 biscuits. If you reuse the scraps the biscuits from the scraps will not be as tender as the original batch.
- Place biscuits on a baking pan (any kind; cookie, cake pan, etc.) so that the biscuits are just touching if you'd like the sides tender. Make sure there is an inch between biscuits if you'd like crispier sides.
- Bake 9 - 20 minutes (This depends on the size of your biscuits. If making small biscuits it will take much less time).
- You may brush the tops with milk or butter for a golden brown biscuit.
- These can be frozen and come out great once thawed. If you want a warm biscuit just pop them in the microwave or back into the oven and they taste like they are fresh from the oven.
