2 Cups Self-rising flour (White Lilly preferred)
1/4 cup butter (i.e. 1/2 stick)
Buttermilk (I never measure)
Melt butter in the bottom of a bowl.
Add flour and cut in
Add enough buttermilk to form a ball. I prefer the dough to be a little sticky.
GENTLY work dough on a floured surface. Pat out dough until approximately 1/2" thick. Cut with a biscuit cutter or I use a scrapper which makes square biscuits but NO waste.
Bake at 500 degrees until done
For a different taste, substitute regular milk for the buttermilk
