2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons cold margarine, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

These biscuits were a disappointment. They were dry and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
