The most delicious tea biscuits ever! And very quick and easy!

- 2 cups flour

- 2 Tbsp. sugar

- 2 tsp. cream of tartar (buy this in the spice section of the grocery store if you don’t have any)

- 1 tsp. baking soda

- 1/2 tsp. salt

- 1/4 cup margarine or butter

- 1 egg

- 2/3 cup milk (I used rice milk and it worked great)

Mix dry ingredients together. Cut in margarine or butter with two knives or a pastry blender until the consistence of crumbs. Beat eggs slightly and add with milk. Stir only til dough follows fork around bowl. Turn out on floured board (or clean counter top), and knead for 1 minute. Pat out 1/2 inch thick, cut with 2 or 3 inch biscuit cutter (or whatever size you prefer). Bake on ungreased cookie sheet – I used my pizza stone from Pampered Chef and it works perfectly for a single recipe – in hot oven 400°F for 15 minutes. Makes 12-14 biscuits.
