BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
This is my mother's biscuit recipe. They always turn out light and fluffy, the best. I can't tell you how many of these I have made in my lifetime, but I can assure you they are always greeted with enthusiasm and my dinner guests would be disappointed if I didn't have some of these waiting for them, fresh out of the oven.

Steps:
- Sift together flour and baking powder.
- Stir in salt and sugar.
- Cut in the Crisco until the mixture resembles crumbs.
- Stir together eggs and milk.
- Make a well in the dry mixture and stir in the milk mixture with a fork.
- Stir just to moisten, then turn out onto a lightly floured board.
- Knead about 15 times, then pat lightly into a circle, about 1/2-inch thick.
- (The secret to light and fluffy biscuits is to handle the dough as little as possible) With a sharp round cutter, cut out rounds, without twisting the cutter.
- Just give it a sharp tap, then lift straight up (twisting the cutter causes the biscuits to slope over when they are baking) place on a baking sheet.
- Bake at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Serve warm.

MOM'S BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
This is the recipe my mom always made. I like to use the butter flavored shortening, but you can use regular. Amount of biscuits you get depends on how big around you make them and the thickness. My daughter likes me to make smaller ones.

MOM'S BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
I learned how to make these Biscuits from my Mom, who was taught my her Mom. I have never found any better. It is important to let your biscuits set before baking. It gives the Baking Powder time to activate and will rise better.

ROLLED BAKING POWDER BISCUITS
One of my earliest memories is of my mother making biscuits and gravy for breakfast. All the kids would stand around while Mom cut the biscuits hoping for a little scrap of dough to play with. We weren't disappointed! Before baking them, Mom would melt bacon grease in the skillet and dip the biscuit top in the grease before turning the bisuit over and placing it in the skillet. Makes a really good old-fashioned biscuit! I think Mom must have doubled her recipe to feed all of us.
