Baking Powder Biscuits

Ingredients

• 2 cupfuls flour
• 1/2 teaspoonful salt
• 4 teaspoonfuls baking powder
• 2 tablespoonfuls fat
• milk or water, about 2/3 cupful

Instructions

Mix as in drop biscuits, using less milk, so that the dough is just stiff enough to roll out. Roll gently to 1/2 inch thickness on a slightly floured board, and cut into small biscuits. If any dry flour clings to the top of the biscuits, moisten it with a little milk or water. Place on a slightly oiled pan, and bake in a hot oven (475 degrees F.) from 12 to 15 minutes. Serve hot. They may be placed on a folded napkin or doily.
