Baking Powder Biscuits

These are Easy & Delicious. They are good with beef stew or for breakfast and I like them most w/ butter and jelly or a sausage patty and eggs :)

2 cups flour, sifted
1 tblsp. sugar
4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup shortening
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup milk

Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Cut in shortening. Combine milk and eggs and mix into flour mixture. Turn dough on a lightly floured surface and knead gently. Roll dough to a 3/4 inch thickness. I usually form the shape with a cookie cutter or a glass... Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake approximately 12 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy :)
