Baking Powder Biscuits - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 1/4 cups flour
    2 tablespoons sugar
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    4 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
    1/3 - 1/2 cup butter
    1 cup cold milk
Preparation
    Combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and cream of tartar.
    Cut in butter until fine.
    Add milk, stirring quickly with a fork, just to moisten.
    Knead gently on a floured board. (Don't handle any more than you have to-- just enough to blend the ingredients)
    Roll out to 1 inch thick and cut out biscuits. (A drinking glass works well for this.)
    Bake on an ungreased cookie sheet at 450 degrees for 12-15 minutes.
