Title: Quick biscuits
 Categories: Breads
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
      2 c  Flour
      5 ts Baking powder
      1 ts Salt
    1/4 c  Shortening
      1 c  Milk
 
  Mix and sift the dry ingredients; rub in the shortening and mix with
  the milk to a soft, thick dough. Drop by spoonfuls onto a
  well-greased tin and bake in a quick oven (425) for about 15 minutes.
  These are best when made with butter and come out of the oven as
  thin, crusty biscuits rather than the thicker variety. Twelve
  biscuits. --Mary Leize Simons
