GRANDMA WILLIAMS' BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Grease three 9-inch pie tins with 2 teaspoons lard.
• Put the biscuit mix in a bowl and make a well in the middle of the flour. Put the lard in the well and add the buttermilk. Gently mix the buttermilk and lard into the flour with your hands until a soft dough forms. If the dough is dry, add a little more buttermilk; if it's too wet, add a little more flour. Coat your hands well with flour and gently form the dough into balls a little larger than a golf ball. Place the dough balls in the pie tins, 7 per tin. Gently press each ball down to flatten.
• Bake until lightly browned on top and the biscuits release from the tins when you give them a shake, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and rub the tops of the biscuits with the butter or margarine. Serve hot!

Whisk egg and milk together in a separate bowl and slowly add milk mixture to flour mixture, stirring as you pour, until dough is moistened and well-mixed. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet.

• Beat the butter and the sugar together until combined and smooth. Slowly stir in flour and chocolate chips to your butter and sugar. Combine well.
• Butter 2 or so trays and then set aside for later. Now, roll the biscuit dough into little balls and place them on the trays. Flatten them with a fork and pop them in the *oven for 10-15 mins. *keep an eye on the oven-they burn very easily.
• Lay them out on a wire rack to cool down.(I prefer these biscuits a little under baked so they're a bit gooey).

GRANDMA'S GINGER BISCUITS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2.

• Mix together the dry ingredients, and then add the butter/egg mix. Make sure these mix thoroughly, it may be necessary to use your hands.
• Shape the resulting dough into small balls roughly 2cm across.
• Place WELL APPART on a thoroughly greased tray, (About 6 on an average sized tray) and bake for 20-25 mins. (If they are still a bit pale after this, turn the oven up a fraction to brown them slightly).
• Leave to cool completely on the tray.
