Texas Breakfast Biscuit

This is a basic biscuit recipe. 1/2 cup shortening cut into 2 cups of self-rising flour, and add 1 cup of milk or buttermilk. Turn out on a well floured surface and knead lightly. Roll about 1/2 inch thick and cut with biscuit cutter (for these, I used a really big one). Place, sides touching, in a greased baking dish. Brush tops with melted butter and bake @ 450 for about 20 minutes. This biscuit is topped with a 4 oz. sausage pattie, 2 scrambled eggs, and sliced cheddar cheese. That's a Texas sized breakfast!!
