These are our favorite's If I add in sugar or more sugar I have bisquits for shortcake with strawberries I do tend to add in of shorting about 4 TBL with the butter sometimes I add in the whole stick of Butter. I do put my flour in the freezer for 20 min before using it Everything nice and cold! I also bake on parchment paper, I don't over work my dough and pat it out to make 8 now i'll have to make some... I hope you enjoy
