Biscuits


2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons butter, cubed
3/4 cup milk


In a large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt together. Cut butter into mixture until it begins to look like cornmeal
Make a well with flour mixture and slowly add milk into the middle. Knead dough with your fingers and add milk when necessary. Roll out dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll out to desired thickness. Cut with small biscuit cutter.
Butter bottom of  round cake pan and place biscuits in pan. Bake 400 for 12 minutes or until golden brown.

You can always add anything you'd like. If we are having it with gravy I leave it at that but if its a side to another meal I add things like chives, or garlic, or different kinds of cheese, or jalapeno flakes.



FREEZABLE: Roll out and cut and freeze for later use. Bake from frozen approximately the same temp and time.
