Drop Biscuits

Ingredients

  • 3 cupfuls flour
  • 2 tablespoonfuls butter
  • 3 teaspoonfuls baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoonful salt
  • 1 1/2 cupfuls milk

Directions

Sift the baking powder, salt, and flour together, rub in the butter with the tips of the fingers, then add the milk, and beat to a soft dough. Grease a baking pan, lift a level tablespoonful of the dough and drop it into the pan, having each biscuit an inch apart, and bake in a hot oven. This is an excellent recipe to use when one is in a hurry and there is not time to make a biscuit which has to be rolled out and cut.
