The latest recipe from “A World of Baking” is a simple biscuit but some of the best I have made in years (such a delightful book). A great Sunday morning treat. Remember to work them very, very lightly.
MY BISCUITS
2 C sifted all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 C unsalted butter
2 large eggs
about 1/2 C milk
1/2 C crisp pieces of cooked bacon
Preheat the oven to 425 F
Sift flour, powder,and salt. Cut in the butter with a fork. Add the eggs and enough milk to made a dough that holds together and can be kneaded. Add the bacon. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured counter and knead very, very lightly- no more than 10 times. 
Pat the dough out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Cut into rounds (1,2, or 3 inch – whatever strikes your fancy). Bake on an unbuttered baking sheet for 12-15 minutes.
Enjoy!
