      Title: Simple Biscuit
 Categories: Five, Breads
      Yield: 12 Biscuits
 
      2 c  A-P flour
      3 ts Baking powder
      1 ts Salt
    1/3 c  Butter; cold, in cubes
    2/3 c  Milk
 
  The first step to making great simple biscuits is to whisk together
  your dry ingredients. Use the biggest mixing bowl you got and just
  give the flour, baking powder and salt a quick whisk - just to get
  them incorporated.
  
  Then grab your cold butter and cut it into cubes. Cut these butter
  bits into your dry ingredients with a pastry blender until the
  mixture looks like coarse crumbs. The last step of creating the
  dough is adding the milk. Stir it in until the dough is just
  moistened - no need to overwork it.
  
  Next up, you'll give the biscuits a quick knead. Sprinkle your
  clean work surface with a bit of flour (just so it doesn't stick)
  and turn the dough out. Knead the biscuits gently eight to ten
  times. Then press the dough with your hands until it's 1/2"
  thick. Grab a 2-1/2" biscuit cutter and cut out your biscuits.
  
  Editor's tip: If you don't have a biscuit cutter or round cookie
  cutter, just use a glass or cup with a thin rim. Dip the edge into
  some flour and use that as a cutter. It works just as well.
  
  Finally, place your biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet. Give
  them a little room-about an inch between each. Bake @ 450°F/232°C
  for 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve them warm. If you
  love vintage cookbooks, try these cottage cheese biscuits.
