Cloud Biscuits

2 C flour
1 T sugar
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 C shortening
1 beaten egg
2/3 C milk

Mix dry ingredients. Cut in shortening. Mix egg and milk together. Add to dry ingredients; blend together. Knead until smooth. Pat out as thick as biscuit cutter. Bake at 450 degrees for 10-14 minutes or until golden brown.

Cherise gave me this recipe many years ago. Great biscuits! Have some raspberry jam handy!
