This biscuit recipe will produce the biggest and fluffiest biscuits in the history of the world! Serve these gems with butter, preserves, honey, or gravy, or use them as dinner rolls... You get the picture, they go with everything. The dough can also be prepared several hours, and up to a day, ahead of time. You may have to make a few batches before you get desired results: humongous biscuits!

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
0.33 cups shortening or butter
1 cup milk

Instructions

1

Gather all ingredients and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2

Whisk flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3

Gradually stir in milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
4

Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead 15 to 20 times. Pat or roll dough out to 1 inch thick. Cut biscuits with a large cutter or juice glass dipped in flour. Repeat until all dough is used. Brush off the excess flour, and place biscuits onto an ungreased baking sheet.
5

Bake in the preheated oven until the edges begin to brown, 13 to 15 minutes. Enjoy!
