Garlic Biscuts

Well today after Church we spoke to the Pastor and we are getting baptized on September 12th. Right after the 10:30 Service. There is a bake sale/pot luck after that also. So we will do that after probably. At least as long as Elijah lets us stay! Anyone who would like to come, it is at First Christian Church in Junction City. Service starts at 10:30am. I understand they do it right after the service. For directions you can visit www.fccjcks.com or just get ahold of me!

Tonight we had the leftover meatballs and spaghetti. I figured I would have some garlic bread, well we didn't have that, so I found a basic biscuit recipe and added to it. Wow yum. Anyone else seeing a pattern with me and posting recipes? Oh well I will continue to post as I continue to bake. Anyone reading this that likes me: For Christmas I would really like a stand mixer, rolling pin and some really nice pyrex mixing bowls. Just saying :)

2 cups sifted flour
2 teaspoons Baking Powder
4 Tablespoons of butter
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoon of garlic
1 teaspoon of the following: Sage, Oregano, Basil, Parsley, Italian seasoning mix
1 Tablespoon Parmesan cheese (Fine Grated)

Mix together the flour, salt, baking powder, spices, and Parmesan cheese. I use a whisk to combine them completely. Cut in the butter and olive oil, I cut the butter into 1 table spoon increments and then mix it in with my fingers one at a time. Dumping the Olive Oil mid way through. Once combined stir in the milk very slowly. Roll dough out onto a clean and floured counter top. I think the dough should be no more than 1/4 inch thick but I make mine thinner. I also don't own a biscuit cutter, but have found for bite size biscuits (Great for dipping in the past sauce) I use a baby food jar. I flip it upside down, using the mouth of the jar to cut through the dough. Bake on 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Really watch the time though, I make mine thinner so it was more like 10 minutes for me.
