Ingredients
For the Mix
- 8 cups all-purpose flour see note
- 4 tablespoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
To Make the Biscuits
- 2 cups biscuit mix see note
- ⅓ cup shortening
- ¾ cup buttermilk see note
Instructions
For the Mix
- Whisk together ingredients and store in an air-tight container or bag.
To Make the Biscuits
- Cut the shortening into the biscuit mix.
- Add buttermilk gradually as you mix, until the dough forms a rough ball and all sticks together. It should be slightly tacky.
- On a floured surface, press dough into a square that is 1 inch thick.
- Cut into 6 squares (or smaller if you'd like mini biscuits).
- Gently round out the edges of each biscuit and place in buttered baking dish. You can use a cast iron skillet, a cookie sheet, really anything.
- For soft edges, place the biscuits ¼ inch apart. For firm edges, place them 2 inches apart.
- Bake at 450º F for about 10-12 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops are just starting to brown.
- After biscuits are baked, brush tops with melted butter.
