Ingredients & Directions
                
 1 1/2 c  All-purpose flour
   1/2 c  Yellow cornmeal
 2 1/2 ts Baking powder
   1/2 ts Salt
   1/3 c  Shortening
   3/4 c  Milk
 Combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt; stir well. Cut in
 shortening with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal.
 Sprinkle milk evenly over flour mixture, stirring just until dry
 ingredients are moistened.  Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface,
 and knead 10 to 12 times. Roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness; cut with a 2
 inch biscuit cutter. Place biscuits on greased baking sheets. Bake at 450
 for 10 minutes or until biscuits are lightly browned.
