Biscuit Sticks

 

1/4 cup butter (no substitutes) 1 1/4 cups all−purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons granulated sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 to 2/3 cup milk

Place butter in a 9−inch square baking pan; place in a 425 degrees F oven for 4 minutes or until melted. Remove from the oven; set aside.

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl; gradually add enough milk to form a soft dough. On a floured surface, knead 4−5 times. Roll out into an 8−inch square; cut in half with a sharp knife. Cut each half into 8 strips. Dip each strip into melted butter in pan, carefully turning to coat; arrange in rows in pan. Bake at 425 degrees F for 18−20 minutes or until golden brown.

Yield: 16 breadsticks.
