Biscuits Supreme

These are the biscuits from the previous post.  They were SO yummy!  And puffy!!  Next time I make these I'm going to use buttermilk & I do believe they will taste just. like. Cracker Barrel biscuits!  Make fun of me, I don't care!!  Once you try them, you'll be a believer, I'm sure :)

For these little yummies, you'll need:

• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 tbs baking powder
• 2 tsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp cream of tartar
• 1/4 tsp salt (I didn't use salt bc I used salted butter)
• 1/2 cup butter, margarine or shortening
• 2/3 cup milk

Stir together flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar, and salt (if using).  Cut in butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.  Make a well in center (see above).

Then add milk all at once and stir until moistened.  I ended up using my hands and mixing it up, then putting dough on floured surface, quickly kneading dough until nearly smooth and rolling out with a rolling pin.  Then my son & I cut out our biscuits using some non-conventional biscuit cutters.

Baked them in a 450 degree oven for about 10 minutes and voila!  Biscuits in the shape of halloween cats and hearts lol.  I tried to get him to at least choose the snowman cutter, but he was stuck on halloween cats.  Sigh.

Doesn't this pic just say love to you??
