KFC BISCUITS (COPYCAT)

Steps:

• PREHEAT oven to 400°F; COMBINE 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 tablespoon sugar, 4 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon baking soda in a large mixing bowl; CUT in shortenings until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• STIR in 1 cup buttermilk just until a soft dough forms (dough will be very loose and sticky at this point).
• SPRINKLE flour over a large wooden board; TURN dough onto a floured board and knead gently 10 to 12 times or until no longer sticky, re-flouring board as necessary while kneading.
• DIVIDE dough in half; GENTLY pat or roll each half into an 8-inch circle 1/2-inch thick.
• CUT out biscuits - pressing straight down - with a 2-inch biscuit cutter.
• REFORM scraps, working it as little as possible and continue cutting.
• PLACE cut biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet with edges barely touching; BRUSH tops of the biscuits with whole milk.
• BAKE for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• IMMEDIATELY brush biscuits with margarine (or butter) after baking.
• SERVE hot and enjoy.

Steps:

• 1. Sift the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
• 2. Cut in the lard with a pastry cutter or with two knives until a coarse texture is obtained.
• 3. Add buttermilk and knead gently but thoroughly. The dough should be soft but not sticky: if it is, add a little more flour. Knead for 1 minute, wrap in foil or wax paper and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
• 4. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees
• 5. Roll out the dough 1/2 inch thick on a lightly floured surface and cut with a biscuit cutter. (If you don't have one, a cup with the desired diameter will work.)
• 6. Transfer biscuits to a dark baking sheet and bake until golden brown, 10-12 minutes
• 7. I must stress use *LARD*, as Crisco or butter doesn't give the same taste, and KFC uses Lard..
