Big Daddy Biscuits

Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
salt, table
sugars, granulated
butter, without salt
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d
butter, without salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
Cut in the 1/3 Cup of butter (I cut the butter into very small cubes and then used a pastry blender) until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Gradually stir in the milk until dough pulls away from the side of the bowl.
Turn out onto a floured surface, and knead 15 to 20 times (I didn't actually do this, I just patted it into a nice smooth mound and then flattened with my hands to the thickness I wanted - about 3/4 inch thick).
Cut into biscuits (I used about a 2 inch size).
Brush off excess flour and place biscuits onto a lightly sprayed baking pan (I use lightly sprayed foil for easy cleanup).
Brush tops of biscuits with melted butter.
Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on your oven - I baked mine for about 10 minutes).
I actually lift a biscuit off the pan and see if the bottoms are a nice light golden brown and then I remove from oven.
I had about 9-10 biscuits from this mix.
