Ingredients

  • 2 c. self-rising flour
  • 1/3 c. shortening
  • 2/3 c. beer

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • Grease a baking sheet. Combine all ingredients and mix well, using a food processor, fitted with the steel blade, or an electric mixer.
  • This dough will be sticky and soft but don't add any more flour.
  • Place on a well-floured surface and sprinkle just a little flour on top of the dough.
  • Knead about 10 times. Roll or pat out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch.
  • Cut with a 2 inch biscuit cutter.
  • After cutting the biscuits, you can roll the scraps of dough again but do this only once. Place the biscuits about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes or until the tops are light golden brown.
