Instructions
Mix dry ingredients together with fork. Cut in shortening with pastry blender. Stir in about 1 1/2 cups water. If dry add 1/4 cup more. Turn onto floured surface, knead 8 to 10 times. Roll dough 3/4 inch thick. Cut with biscuit cutter. Do not twist with biscuit cutter, just straight down and up. This will make them puff up more. Bake at 400 F. for 20-25 minutes. Makes 45—2-inch biscuits.

These freeze well. Put on cookie sheet, freeze, then put in bags to store. Bake frozen biscuits about 30 minutes at 400 F.
