INSTRUCTIONS
Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar in a mixing bowl.
Cut in butter or shortening with pastry blender until mixture resembles
coarse crumbs. Add buttermilk. Mix quickly to make soft dough. Turn out
onto lightly floured surface. Knead a few times to make a soft dough, don't
overknead or the biscuits will be hard and dry. Roll out to a 6-by-6-inch
square. Place on ungreased baking sheet. With knife, cut dough into 12 even
portions. Do not separate. Bake at 400^ until golden about 15 minutes. Dust

A Message from our Provider:
“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”
