Print this Recipe


   2 cups flour, stirred and measured
   3 teaspoons baking powder
   1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
   1/2 teaspoon salt
   2 teaspoons sugar
   1/2 cup vegetable shortening
   2/3 cup milk


In large mixing bowl stir together flour, baking powder, cream of tartar, salt, and sugar. Cut in shortening until mixture forms coarse crumbs. Add milk all at once; stir until dough follows fork around bowl. Turn out onto lightly floured surface. Pat or roll dough 1/2 inch thick; cut with biscuit cutter. Bake on ungreased baking sheet at 425 degrees F. for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 16 medium biscuits.
Note: Leftover biscuits can be split, buttered, and toasted for another meal.

Variation
Rich Shortcake for Strawberries or Other Fruit: Increase sugar to 2 tablespoons; use butter or margarine in place of shortening; add 1 beaten egg to 1/2 cup milk; proceed as above. Split hot or cold shortcakes in half and serve with crushed sweetened strawberries and slightly sweetened whipped cream.
