MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Dolly Parton's Biscuits Categories: Breads Yield: 24 Biscuits 2 c A-P flour; more as needed 1 tb Baking powder 1 ts Salt 1/4 ts Baking soda 5 tb Lard 1 c Buttermilk Sift together 2 cups of flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda into a large bowl. Add lard to the bowl. Use two forks or a pastry cutter to blend the fat into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk to the bowl. Use your hands to gently combine the ingredients into a dough. If the dough is too sticky, add in more flour little by little until you have a soft dough. Knead the dough for 2 minutes. (You can do this in the bowl or on a floured surface.) It will still be very soft. Set the oven @ 450°F/232°C. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1/2" thick. Use a 2" round biscuit cutter or overturned glass to cut out rounds; then place the rounds on an ungreased baking sheet about 1" apart. (You can line the pan with parchment paper if you'd like.) Bake the biscuits for 13 to 15 minutes until they're puffed and golden brown. Serve them warm from the oven or at room temperature.
