Cracker Barrel Like Biscuits! Really!

• 2 cups self-rising flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup butter, chilled and diced
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 beaten egg white
• extra butter, melted, for brushing

1. Preheat oven to 450.
2. SIFT (this is important!) together the dry ingredients into a large bowl.
3. Cut in the butter and then stir in the milk until the dough comes together.
4. Divide the dough in half, and then each half in half again. Continue doing this until you have 32 small, roughly-equal, portions. Roll these into balls. Take two balls at a time and press them together into one disk. (This is what allows the biscuits to separate nicely for buttering!) Don't press them too flat, they should be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Keep doing this until you have 16 disks. Place them on a ungreased cookie sheet, sides touching. Brush lightly with beaten egg white.
5. Bake 8 - 10 minutes, depending on how dark you like them. 9 minutes works for me.
6. When they come out, immediately brush them generously with melted butter.
7. Eat some right away! They are SO good fresh from the oven! Enjoy!
