Making biscuts?!
Answers: Hi everybody. I would like to make some biscuts. The ONLY ingrediants I have are eggs, flour, choc chips, sugar, margarine, milk. I have no baking soda, etc. If someone knows how to throw these ingrediants I have together, I would be quite grateful. No other ingrediants. Thank you.
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
DIRECTIONS
Combine flour, and salt. Set aside.
Melt 1 cup of chocolate chips over low heat. Cream butter and sugar. Add melted chocolate chips ; beat in eggs; add flour mixture and remaining chocolate chips.
Wrap in plastic and freeze until firm (about 20 minutes).
Make small balls (1 inch); . Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Cool on wire rack.
if the flour is self raising.. then you are ok..
you can make em with plain flour.. they just wont come out like you want...u really need bak soda or bak powder
which is what self raising has in it
shortning is better.. margarine will work..
mash your margraine in the flour till it comes out tacky
say like little less then a 1/4 stick per cup of flour..
you want all the margraine to be equally thoughout the flour
add just enough milk to wet the base.. you want it stiff not muddy..
\grease up a iron skillet.. they work best..
roll into floured balls.. pat flat.. i like to dimple the bottoms
lay in the skillet just barly touching each other...
oven for 15 mins or golden brown on top at 450
