Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan.
- Place flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, cream of tartar in a mixing bowl.
- Work in the shortening with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture resembles and feels like cornmeal.
- Pour milk into the flour mixture and mix well.
- Knead the dough about 12 to 15 times.
- Break the dough into ¼ to ⅓-cup size balls.
- Roll or pat out dough balls to ½-inch thickness.
- Place the dough pieces on a baking sheet and brush them with melted butter.
- Bake at 450°F for 10 to 12 minutes.
- While the biscuits are baking, pour the honey into the remainder of the butter and bring it to a boil.
- Remove the honey butter from the heat and set aside.
- When biscuits are done, remove them from the oven and immediately brush the tops with honey butter.
Notes
- If you don't have vegetable shortening, you can substitute more butter into the recipe. Note the biscuits won't be as flaky with butter as they are with shortening.
- Serve these biscuits for dinner with your favorite fried chicken or it makes a wonderful breakfast.
