Honey Butter Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup butter

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together into a bowl. Combine shortening with flour mixture using fingers until the mixture is crumbly and resembles cornmeal. Stir milk in gradually until dough is well combined.
Place dough on a floured surface; shape into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle about 12 inches wide.
Put honey and butter into a microwave-safe bowl; microwave until melted, 15 to 20 seconds. Stir.
Spread 1/2 the honey-butter mixture on the dough surface; roll up like a jellyroll and cut into 12 slices, about 1 inch thick. Arrange biscuits on a baking sheet 1/2-inch apart; spread remaining honey-butter on each.
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
