Tea Biscuits

I made these biscuits a bit too small miniature sized.. but generally speaking, a normal sized glass is the perfect tool to cut these into rounds. These are delicious for a brunch, with dinner or any time with tea. 

• 2 cups flour
• 4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 tablespoons shortening
• 7/8 cup milk (a little less than a cup), warmed

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit
2. Combine all dry ingredients and cut in shortening. Warm milk and add last. Stir to combine.
3. Roll out dough to approximately 1/4" thick.
4. Using a glass, cut out rounds and place on baking sheet, touching each other.
5. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Move promptly to cooling rack.
