Bisquick biscuits used to be good. Now I make my own. Just as easy and a lot cheaper. The secret is DO NOT OVER HANDLE. Got this recipe from allrecipes.com, submitted by Nancy Horsburgh:
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening (I use butter flavored Crisco)
1 egg
2/3 cup cold milk
Combine dry ingredients with shortening until it resembles coarse crumbs. Beat egg with milk; stir into dry ingredients JUST until moistened.
Turn onto well-floured board. Press out to the thickness you like (I like about 3/4" thick). Cut with biscuit cutter. Place on lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 450º for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.
For those at higher elevations: Over 5000 ft reduce baking powder to about 2 1/2 teaspoons. (I've practiced a lot to learn this).
