Homemade Biscuits


Sometimes, in life something gets your number and it becomes the "Thing" that you cannot do. Biscuits... They are my "THING". I admit it. I am a bit of a biscuit snob. I don't just like biscuits.. they have have to be good for me to eat them. I obviously live in the south and you and your biscuits are a staple.  I have tried a million recipes and all are dry, flavorless and nasty. The dog gets to enjoy  most of them. All that until recently when I met a new friend that told me all her secrets to making them wonderful. I didn't get the recipe from her but I believe that this would be very close.  She didn't have a recipe.. she just dumps till it looks right. LOL. 

Homemade Biscuits

2 1/2 Cups Self Rising Flour
1 Stick Butter - Cut into Tb. squares
1 C. Butter Milk
* Additional flour for rolling

In a mixing bowl, add 1 Cup of Self Rising Flour. In a food processor combine the remaining 1 1/2 C. of flour with the butter and pulls several times to combine into large crumbles. 




 Combine, both the flour and butter and flour mixture into mixing bowl and stir several times. After stirring make a well in the center of the flour and pour your cup of milk into the center. With a large fork combine the milk, butter and flour mixing no more than 15 times.



After mixing, turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll out till it is 1" think, fold into 3rds and repeat. Continue this process 7-8 times and pay special attention to not flatten the layers to much.  After doing this, your are ready for the final rolling. Roll out dough and use a SHARP dough cutter to cut out the biscuits. 

 Place the biscuits in a greased cast iron skillet, or backing sheet so that the biscuits are all touching.
 Brush biscuits with butter and place in a preheated 450 degree oven for 20 Min.

 When desired brownness has been reached brush each top with butter and serve warm with butter and any and all types of yumminess.  ENJOY!
