Lundy'S Ultimate Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 3 tbsp. for dusting surface
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons shortening
1/2 cup milk

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Sift flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt into a large bowl.
Cut butter and shortening into small pieces and add to flour mixture.
Using hands or a pastry blender, crumble the fat into the flour mixture until the butter and shortening are pea-sized pieces and the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal.
Knead dough gently on a lightly floured work surface.
Roll out dough to 1/2 inch thick which is crucial to the outcome of the biscuits.
Use a 2 inch biscuit cutter or glass to cut out the biscuits and place on an ungreased baking sheet.
Bake 14-15 minutes until golder brown and serve hot.
