Directions:
Remember when you are making biscuits, the main this is do not fool with the dough a whole lot; if you do you will get crackers, which are just not the same due to the crunch factor. Mix together the dry stuff (flour, salt, sugar, baking powder and baking soda). Then cut in the butter until it’s crumbly. Add buttermilk, stirring just until it’s moist. Flop the dough out onto a well-floured surface, smooth it out and then roll it out to about 1/2” thickness and cut out little biscuits with a 2” diameter cutter (or whatever cutter you want), the 2” cutter makes about 3 dozen biscuits. Bake the biscuits on an ungreased cookie sheet at 400° for about 13 minutes or until they are as brown as you personally like them to be. These biscuits are just as good stone cold as they are hot out of the oven which is pretty high praise for a biscuit.
