Biscuit Supreme

Each morning I wake up.  I eat some breakfast, make lunch, and take out something from the freezer for dinner.  Yesterday I took out chicken and contemplated what to do with it.  I wanted to create a dish to bake, but the only one I could come up with at the time included pasta, and we were pasta'd out.  Then, it hit me... chicken and biscuits. 
When choosing my biscuit recipe I became stumped at what type of biscuit I wanted to make:  traditional or flavorful?  Cheddar and chives or buttermilk?  Well I finally decided on something simple.  I wanted to use ingredients that anyone would have in their pantry.  So, I went with Biscuit Supreme.
To make your own Biscuit Supreme you will need the following:

Ingredients:

3 cups of all-purpose flour

1 Tablespoon of baking powder

1 Tablespoon of granulated sugar

1 teaspoon of salt

3/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar

3/4 cup of butter (cold)

and

1 cup of milk

Tools:

1 stand mixer or 1 bowl and hand mixer

1 fork (if you use a hand mixer)

1 rolling pin

1, 2 1/2 in. biscuit cutter or 1 glass

and

2 greased baking sheets

Steps:

-  In your mixing bowl combine all of the dry ingredients.  So your flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and

   cream of tartar will all be thrown into one bowl and mixed together.

-  Next up, add the butter.  Cut the butter by tablespoons and add each tablespoon one at a time.  When the

   butter is in the bowl cut the butter into the flour using your mixer until it forms crumbles.

-  When the butter has turned into crumbles, create a well in the middle of the flour mixture so you can see

   the bottom of the bowl. 

-  Pour the milk into the well.  It will look like this:

-  Now, using either the fork or your stand mixer paddle, mix all of the ingredients together JUST UNTIL the

   mixture begins to form into a dough and is moist.  You don't want the dough to form completely into a ball. 

   That is important to remember.

-  Take the dough out of the bowl and knead it on a floured surface a few times until the dough holds

   together by itself.

-  Then roll the dough out until it's 3/4 of an inch thick.  Using your biscuit cutter or drinking end of a glass,

   cut your biscuits and place them onto a greased baking sheet.

-  Then roll up your scraps and repeat step 7 until all of your dough has been used.

-  Place your biscuits into a 450 degree oven for 10-14 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown.

-  When they're finished take them out of the oven and let them cool.

Now you can eat your warm butter biscuits with whatever you want!

Enjoy!
