Buttermilk Biscuits

Directions

1. 1
   Mix flour, powder, soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
2. 2
   Cut in margarine with a pastry blender until mixture forms small crumbs.
3. 3
   Add buttermilk.
4. 4
   Mix just enough to make a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead a few times.
5. 5
   (Don't knead too much or biscuits will be dry and hard!) Roll the dough out to a 6 x 8-inch shape and place it on an ungreased cookie sheet. With a sharp knife, cut the dough into 12 equal pieces but do not separate.
6. 6
   Bake in a 400° oven for 15 minutes.
7. 7
   Serve hot.
