My 11-year-old niece Jessica is visiting this weekend and among the shopping and playing, we are also doing some baking.
Jessica recently earned Grand Champion at her county fair with her home-made biscuits. These delicious biscuits are wonderful alone or smothered with fresh strawberry jam. Enjoy!
Jessica’s Biscuits
2 cups flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 1/2 tsp. sugar
1/2 cup margerine
2/3 cup milk
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Mix dry ingredients well in a bowl. Cut in margerine until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Add milk. Knead 10-12 strokes. Roll out and cut into circles. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
