My favorite cookies are oreos. When I first saw this thread, me coming from the southern part of the United States thought this was a "biscuit" thread. In the south these are what we call biscuits
Are those bread rolls? They probably aren't, but it looks like bread.
OT: Oreos! I love them so much! Followed closely by tim tams.
It is indeed bread.
2 cups self rising flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
1 Melted butter (about 1/4 cup)|Stir together the flour, baking powder & 10 x sugar.
2 Cut in the shortening until pieces are about the size of grains of rice. Stir in the buttermilk.
3 Knead a few times, roll out on a floured board or counter top to 3/4inch. thickness.
4 Be careful not to work dough too much or add too much flour, or you'll have dry biscuits. Cut with an oversized biscuit cutter (about 3 inches).
5 Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake about 12 minutes in a preheated 450 degree oven.
