In medium-large bowl, place the flour and cut in shortening with a fork until coarse crumbs form.


Add milk; Mix well. The dough should be soft and wet.


Place extra cup of flour in seperate small bowl.


"Flour" hands and pull of a "biscuit-sized" portion of dough and roll in flour. Roll gently in palm. The center of biscuit should still be soft and wet.


Place on a lightly greased 9-inch pan or cookie sheet (I always use my baking stone)


Flatten "balls" slightly and bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.


Serve with country gravy and sausage for breakfast or with a homestyle meal!
