1-1/4 C Butter Milk

 

Whisk together dry ingredients.

Add butter to dry ingredients. Gently toss butter to coat it with flour. Do not mixt it, just coat it. Use butter instead of shortening because butter contains water which makes steam.

Mix in Butter milk. Do not touch batter with hands. Use a utensil to prevent heat from you hands touch batter. Do not mix well. Just sort of kind of mix it.

 

Empty bowl onto a flowered surface. Use a pastry cutter to push it together into a 7 inch square. Roll it into a 9 x 12 inch rectangle. Fold it over into thirds using pastry cutter to push it, pat it down and roll it again for a total of five times

Form a 7 inch square

 

Roll into a 9 x 12 inch rectangle

 

 

The last time it is rolled out refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

Cut off all four edges going back 1/4 inch. The structure of the edges will retard their ability to rise making lopsided biscuits. Mold the scraps into whatever shape you want and bake them along with the biscuits. Use a sharp knife to cut the block of biscuits into 9 squares .

Bake 400⁰ for 20 minutes.

 

 These a lot of work, but they are flakey.
