Turn on oven to 400deg
1 stick of margarine (chilled(as in take it right out of the fridge))
3 cups of flours +5tsp baking powder +1/2 tsp salt
Pastry cutter it all up
pour in 1 1/2 cups of blinky milk
stir, but don't go crazy
Butter big ol' cookie sheet
Dump the dough on the cookie sheet and with floured hands
press it out to about 3/4" thick
Cut (a pastry scraper thing works well) into squares and sorta push them apart
Bake until "golden" edges
These split nicely and they are a moist biscuit. Great for gravies and leftover roast.
By "blinky" I mean you don't really want it on your cereal but it's not exactly offensive to the nose if you tell the nose you aren't planning on drinking it. If you zap it in the microwave for <30 second it gets thick and might make you feel more secure. I know you can sour the milk with a little lemon juice but that's cheating plus it just tastes like you added a little lemon juice to your milk.
