• When the mixture is well combined and crumbly, make a well in the center and pour in buttermilk.
• Using a fork, stir, starting at the outside of the bowl and blending inward.
• Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead a few times, just until the dough is completely combined and holds together well.
• With a rolling pin, roll dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a biscuit cutter or round cookie cutter.
• Grease a cookie sheet with crisco and place the biscuits 1-2 inches apart on the sheet and bake at 450 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes.
