BASIC SOUTHERN BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
• Dissolve the yeast in warm water.
• Mix the dry ingredients together.
• Cut in the shortening.
• Add the yeast mixture and buttermilk. Mix well.
• Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out to the desired thickness. Cut with a small biscuit cutter and place on a greased cookie sheet.
• Bake for about 12 minutes - or until they are gold en brown!
