Biscuits Supreme

BISCUITS SUPREME








Biscuits Supreme

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
¾ teaspoon cream of tartar
¾ cup butter or ½ cup butter and ¼ cup shortening
1 cup milk

Method

1.                  Preheat oven to 450°F.  In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cream of tartar.  Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Make a well in the center of the flour mixture.  Add milk all at once.  Using a fork, stir just until mixture is moistened.
2.                  Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.  Knead dough by folding and gently pressing it for four to six strokes or just until dough holds together.  Pat or lightly roll dough until ¾ inch thick.  Cut dough with a floured 2½ inch biscuit cutter; reroll scraps as necessary and dip cutter into flour between cuts.
3.                  Place dough circles 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet.  Bake for 10 to 14 minutes or until golden.  Remove biscuits from baking sheet and serve warm.
