This comes from the Anne of Green Gables cookbook. These biscuits are wonderful, and one of the first things I learned how to make. Please note the recipe is designed for kids and writing as written.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Measure the sifted flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt and mix with fork in large mixing bowl.

- Add the milk and mix it into the flour with fork-but only until the mixture will form a soft ball.
- Place the ball of dough on a lightly floured surface and knead it 12 times.
- Rub some flour on rolling pin and roll the dough until it's about 1/4 inch thick.
- With a large biscuit cutter cut circles, very close together, in the dough. Use a straight downward motion and do not twist the cutter.
- With a spatula lift HALF of the circles, one at a time onto a cookie sheet and arrange them about 1 inch apart.
- With a small cutter cut a hole in the center of the rest of the circles to make rings and lift out the centers. Set the centers aside.
- Place the rings on top of the circles on the cookie sheet.
- Place a teaspoon of red jam or jelly in each ring.
- Bake biscuits for 12-15 minutes until golden.
