Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits

 

1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick)

2 cups self-rising flour

3/4 cup buttermilk

Butter or margarine,  melted

 

Cut 1/2 cup butter into flour with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal.  Add buttermilk, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened.  Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 3 or 4 times.

Roll dough to 3/4-inch thickness, cut with a 2-inch biscuit cutter.  Place on a lightly greased baking sheet.  Bake at 425° for 13 to 15 minutes.  Brush with melted butter.  Yield:  1 dozen

Just make the biscuits according to the recipe, cut them out to desired size and place on a sheet lined with wax paper or foil and freeze solid (several hours or overnight).  Then place biscuits in freezer bags or containers and store in freezer until ready to use.
