Yield: Makes 12 biscuits

Hot from the oven, these will complement any soup or stew.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons lard or shortening
1/2 to 3/4 cup milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in lard. Add milk, stirring slowly to make a soft dough.
