Frozen Biscuits

Instructions

1. Mix shortening and self-rising flour together with your fingers or a pastry cutter.
2. Add buttermilk or sweet milk; the dough will be sticky.
3. Place the dough on a lightly floured board and handle gently until firm enough to roll out 1/2 inch thick.
4. Cut out biscuits and place them on a cookie sheet in the freezer for 1 to 2 hours.
5. Once frozen, remove biscuits from the cookie sheet and place them in a plastic bag.
6. When ready to cook, remove the desired number of biscuits and place them in a pan in a cold oven.
7. Do not preheat the oven.
8. Turn the oven to 450°F and bake the biscuits for 15 to 20 minutes.
