Baking Powder Biscuits

1/2 c shortening
2 c all-purpose flour
1 T sugar
3 t baking powder
1/2 t salt
3/4 c milk

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Combine dry ingredients and cut shortening into flour mixture with a pastry blender. Add milk and mix thoroughly. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and pat down. Don't knead! Simply pat it down with a bit of flour on top and cut into rounds. Place on lightly greased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes.
