BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
This is my mother's biscuit recipe. They always turn out light and fluffy, the best. I can't tell you how many of these I have made in my lifetime, but I can assure you they are always greeted with enthusiasm and my dinner guests would be disappointed if I didn't have some of these waiting for them, fresh out of the oven.

Steps:
- Sift together flour and baking powder.
- Stir in salt and sugar.
- Cut in the Crisco until the mixture resembles crumbs.
- Stir together eggs and milk.
- Make a well in the dry mixture and stir in the milk mixture with a fork.
- Stir just to moisten, then turn out onto a lightly floured board.
- Knead about 15 times, then pat lightly into a circle, about 1/2-inch thick.
- (The secret to light and fluffy biscuits is to handle the dough as little as possible) With a sharp round cutter, cut out rounds, without twisting the cutter.
- Just give it a sharp tap, then lift straight up (twisting the cutter causes the biscuits to slope over when they are baking) place on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Serve warm.

[email protected]These biscuits were a bit dry for my taste, but I think that was because I didn't use enough butter. Next time I'll try adding an extra tablespoon or two.

[email protected]These biscuits were a delightful surprise! I've tried many biscuit recipes, but these were by far the most tender and flavorful. They had a perfect balance of flakiness and crumbliness, and the buttermilk added a lovely tang.
