Cinnamon Twists

cinnamon biscuits

2c flour
3tsp baking powder
2TBSP white sugar
1/3 shortening
1 egg
2/3 c milk

Put baking powder & sugar in flour. Cut in shortening. Beat egg & milk. Mix with flour. Roll dough out – it’ll be sticky so flour or grease.

Spread 1 TBSP butter or marjarine (soft works well) on dough and sprinkle with 1/2 c brown sugar mixed with 2 tsp cinnamon. Roll up and slice. (I roll it out to around 8×12 and cut 12 rolls. The secret is to not roll out a huge rectangle.) Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

A thirty year old recipe still tastes as good today. :) In the picture above, I put each one in a muffin cup instead of flat on a pan. It held the sugar in more so there wasn’t burnt sugar all over my pan as much. Ron says it makes them easier to eat on the drive to work, too.
