===== Ingredients =====
  * 3 cups all purpose flour (125g per cup)
  * 4 tsp baking powder
  * 1 Tbsp sugar
  * 1 tsp salt
  * 3/4 tsp cream of tartar
  * 3/4 cup butter OR 1/2 cup butter and 1/4 cup shortening
  * 1-1/4 cups buttermilk or 1 cup milk

===== Instructions =====
Preheat oven to 450.  In a large bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cream of tartar.  Use a pastry blender to cut in butter/shortening until it is like crumbs.  Make a well in the center and add the milk/buttermilk at once, then stir with a fork until just moistened.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface.  Flour your hands and gently knead by folding 4 to 6 times.  Pat dough gently until it is about 3/4 inch thick.  Dip a biscuit cutter into flour before each cut and place on an ungreased baking sheet.  Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
