Angel Bisquits

My late husband and I tried perfecting biscuits for YEARS!  I finally have the perfect recipe; these are light and fluffy, and we NEVER had any problems with them being dry or coming out wrong...I think they are the perfect biscuit.  We love using these for Biscuits and Gravy for Sunday morning breakfasts.

INGREDIENTS

5 tsp. Yeast
4 Tbls. Warm Water
5 1/2 cups flour
4 Tbls. Sugar
1 tsp. Salt
6 tsp. baking powder
2/3 c. Shortening, chilled
2 cups Buttermilk

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray.

In a small bowl activate the yeast with the water, set aside. In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients and the shortening until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk and activated yeast just until mixed. Poor onto a flower surface and roll out to 1/2-inch thickness, cut into circles. Place on the parchment paper and bake for 13 minutes.
