Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup skim milk

Steps:

1 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 2. Using a fork, stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Gather the dough into a ball. Place the dough on a jelly-roll pan or baking sheet. With lightly-flours hands, press it evenly into a rough 6 x 6-inch square. 3. Using a spatula or the dull side of a knife, cut dough evenly into 12 biscuits without completely separating them. Bake until lightly golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm.
