J.P.'s Big Daddy Biscuits
INGREDIENTS
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon white sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 cup milk
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually stir in milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
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.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges begin to brown.

Got one, this is my mums not-so-secret recipe, its makes perfectly delicious yummy biscuits!
8 oz self raising flour
pinch of salt
6 oz butter
4 oz caster or sifted icing sugar
1 egg beaten
sift the flour and salt into a mixing bowl, rub in all the butter finely until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Then add the sugar, mix to a very stiff dough with the beaten egg.
Turn out on to a lightly floured board and knead gently until smooth.
Put into a polythene bag or wrap in aluminium foil and leave for about 30 minutes. Roll out thinly and cut into about 30 rounds with a 5cm (2") plain or flutted biscuit cutter, put the biscuits onto the greased baking sheets and prick well with a fork. Bake in oven preheated to 180 oc, 350 f, gas mark 4 for 20-30 minutes.
Leave on trays for a few minutes before transferring to wire cooling racks. When cold store in airtight tins
I made these recently for halloween and they went so quickly that I didnt get one myself :( might make them again later though.
