• Sift in the flour and add the milk, mix to a dough and then knead briefly. Wrap and chill for 1-2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Line 2 baking sheets with baking parchment. Roll the dough out on a floured worksurface to 2mm and cut out different shapes. Arrange the biscuits on the baking sheets, grouping all the same sizes together. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden, then cool completely.

BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 F Mix first 4 ingredients together in a bowl.
• Cut in butter with a pastry blender or a fork, or two knives, until crumbly.
• Add milk.
• Stir until it forms a ball.
• Add a bit more milk if necessary to make a soft dough.
• Roll or pat to 1 inch thick. (I usually pat the dough).
• Cut into circles with a biscuit cutter or a floured glass.
• Arrange on a greased baking sheet.
• Bake in 425 F for about 10- 12 minutes or until risen and nicely browned. (in my oven it usually takes 15 minutes).
• This is supposed to make 12, but I almost always only get 11 biscuits, with the size of the glass that I use.
• Variations: Try adding some fresh or dried herbs. Some good pairings are basil and oregano, or parsley and fresh ground black pepper, or thyme and garlic, or add some grated sharp or old cheddar cheese.
