Cooking Games – Biscuits and Honey

A particularly homey winter cooking game is a very simple one, but extremely tasty. To make biscuits and honey, start by turning on the oven and preheating it to 450 degrees. Blend ¼ teaspoon salt, 2 cups of flour and 1 tablespoon of baking powder in a bowl.

Using two knives or even your clean hands, mix in 1/3 cup of shortening. When the shortening is mixed in thoroughly, the biscuit mixture will be crumbly, and that’s okay. Push a hole in the middle of the mixture ball and add ¾ cup milk. Stir the mixture with a fork until it is all mixed and moist.

Sprinkle flour on a cutting board and then lightly knead the biscuit dough by folding itself over on itself over and over again. Use a rolling pin or large can to roll out the dough until it ½ inch thick. Use a can or cookie cutter to cut out 10 biscuits from the dough. Place them on a cookie sheet.

Bake the biscuits for ten minutes, and after allowing the biscuits to cool slightly, break them open, drizzle them with honey and enjoy!
