How to Make Biscuits: Step 1

Measure ingredients and cut your fat into your flour mixture.

Once your dough has started to come together, add your liquid and stir together. Then turn our dough out onto a surface and roll it out.

Cut out your biscuits using a cookie cutter, biscuit cutter, or even a glass. Make sure you have floured your cutter so your dough does not stick.

Yum yum yum. Serve warm or at room temperature with butter, jam, or jelly.

The actual recipe is as followed:

Biscuit Recipe

2 cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour

1 Tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup butter or margarine

3/4 cup milk

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Butter or line a baking sheet.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a fork, pastry blender, or 2 table knives, combine the butter and flour mixture until it resembles a coarse meal. Slowly add the milk, stirring with a fork, to the desired consistency.

3. Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and gently knead just to bring the dough together. Carefully roll out the dough about 3/4 inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter or sturdy glass, cut about 12 biscuits, rerolling any scraps. Place on the lined baking sheet. Bake the biscuits for 13 to 15 minutes (add 3 to 4 additional minutes for frozen ones), until golden brown. Cool slightly and serve warm.
