It's simple, quick and uses ingredients I almost always have on hand. I've heard that the best biscuits are made with a butter/lard combo.

Butter Biscuits instructions
In a large mixing bowl add the Flour (more flour u use the more biscuits u make). Add the salt and egg and 1 stick of melted butter. Mix well adding enough milk at a time til a soft dough forms. Cut the cold butter into cubes and add to dough..
On a well floured surface pour dough out onto four. Sprinkle top of dough with a flour. Mix and slightly knead but don't over do it til u can still see little chunks of Butter throughout. Using a rolling pin lightly floured lightly roll out the dough til desired thickness. Using a round cookie cutter sprayed with nonstick cooking spray and cut out the biscuits. Cover with a damp clothe and let rise for bout 30-45 minutes til puffy..
Preheat oven to 400°F while biscuits are rising. Once biscuits are puffy arrange them slightly apart on a nonstick sheet/cookie pan. Bake for 7-8minutes til light golden brown. Remove from oven and serve immediately 😋.
The butter pool gave the biscuits beautiful color, incredible flavor and made the biscuits easy to serve, allowing them to pop right out. Instead of having the butter in the recipe, it is around the biscuits, allowing for the light browning that only butter can give, yet still soaking into the dough for the flavor. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and salt. In a medium bowl using a hand mixer, beat butter and sugar until light. Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
