MARY'S BISCUITS

These biscuits are a "must" to go along with My Dad's Favorite Chicken & Noodles. They are also good with butter & jam, or honey, or .......

Provided by Mary Scheffert

Categories     Breads

Time 42m

Yield 12 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups flour
2 tablespoons baking powder
4 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup shortening (I use Butter Flavor Crisco--the sticks measure exactly 1 cup each)
1 1/3 cups milk

Steps:

  • Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Cut in shortening with a pastry blender, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Cover bowl& refrigerate for about 30 minutes (this step can be skipped, but it makes the dough easier to handle if it's cold).
  • Make a well in the center of the mixture& add milk all at once.
  • Stir just until dough clings together.
  • Preheat oven to 450F degrees.
  • On a lightly floured surface, knead dough gently 10-12 strokes (don't over-knead or handle dough too much, or it will become tough).
  • Roll or pat dough to 1/2" thickness.
  • Cut with a floured 2 1/2" biscuit cutter--cut straight down to the board, then twist& lift cutter--dipping cutter into flour after each cut.
  • Transfer biscuits to an ungreased baking sheet.
  • Place biscuits so they're almost touching, and press two fingers lightly into top of each biscuit.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes or until golden.
  • Remove to wire rack to cool completely.
  • *Note:Placing biscuits close together on baking sheet helps them to rise, as they"climb" on each other.
  • Also, pressing your fingers into the center of each biscuit keeps the middles from rising higher than the sides.

Tips:

  • Use quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your biscuits. Use fresh, high-quality flour, butter, and sugar.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the biscuits to rise and be more flaky.
  • Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking the biscuits. This will help them to bake evenly.
  • Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown: The biscuits are done baking when they are golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Mary's biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect biscuits every time. These biscuits are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They can also be used to make sandwiches, sliders, or croutons. No matter how you choose to enjoy them, Mary's biscuits are sure to be a hit.
