Butter Biscuits


This is such an easy recipe for the kids. The boys had fun making it and with ingredients that you have in the house its so fast.

Ingredients:
2 Cups all purpose flour
1 tbs baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup milk

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400. In a large bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Using a fork, stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Gather the dough into a ball. Place the dough on a jelly roll pan. Press it evenly into a rough 6- x 6 inch square.
Using a spatula or the dull side of a knife cut the dough into 12 biscuits without completely separating them.
Bake for15 to 20 minutes or until light gold color. Transfer pan to a cooling rack and cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm.

You can add 2 tbs Parmesan cheese, 1/2 tsp dried basil, and 1/4 tsp dried oregano into the dry mixture for a side to a spaghetti dinner.
