Homemade Buttermilk and Black Pepper Petite Biscuits

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly.
  2. Cream in the shortening with your fingers or a fork, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Add the buttermilk a little at a time and, using your hands or a fork, work it in just until its thoroughly incorporated and you have a smooth ball of dough.
  4. Do not overwork or overhandle the dough.
  5. Lightly floured surface, roll out the dough with a rolling pin to a circle about inches in diameter, 1/2-inch thick.
  6. Using a small round cookie cutter or the rim of a shot glass, press out twelve 1-inch rounds.
  7. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.
