Searching for a homemade biscuit that is easy breezy?

Heres is an amazing biscuit recipe my grandmother gave to me.
It is so easy and so satisfying, as well as super inexpensive to make.
You will never want to buy another frozen package of biscuits AGAIN!

to begin:
preheat your oven to 400 degrees.


what you will need:
2c. self rising flour
1 tblspn. granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoonful of baking powder
1/2c. unsalted butter, or shortening
3/4c butter milk (or whole milk is fine)
1/4 teaspoon salt (unmeasured, a little less)


how to prepare:
This recipe you can do two ways, kitchenaid *or hand mixer* or my favorite, which saves me time -Food processor.
yes, i said food processor.

In your food processor with just the regular blade add in the flour,baking powder, and salt.
pulse until all mixed well.
then add in the sugar,pulse lightly.

get your butter from the fridge(always want butter cold for this recipe), cut into small cubes.
then add to food processor and pulse only a few times until the butter is the size of peas.
then add the buttermilk and pulse until the dough seperates from the sides of the food processor.

lay the dough out onto a lightly floured surface,using your hands just fold over each side rotating until you have formed layers.
*remember do not kneed this dough. we are simply forming layers*
then using a rolling pin or your hands, roll or pat out until about 1/4  in thickness.
With a standard 3inch biscuit cutter, cut out your biscuits.
* remember to dip the cutter into flour to keep from making a mess and the dough sticking*
then on a lightly sprayed baking sheet, place your biscuits on.

baking time:12-17 depending on the size of the biscuits
check at 12minutes first.

melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the microwave and while the biscuits are still hot drizzle with butter and enjoy:)
