Honey Biscuits

These are divine! I haven't made them in a long time because, well, they are not exactly healthy.... but I really think everyone should get to eat them AT LEAST once because they are divine!
I made them last night and ate one myself while my family devoured them (it was a good thing I doubled the recipe)! I hope you like 'em!

Honey Biscuits

2 C Flour
4 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Salt
2 tsp Sugar
1 tsp Cream of Tarter
1/2 C Vegetable Shortening
2/3 C Whole Milk
1/2 stick butter (melt in a pan and set aside)
1/3 C Honey

Place Flour, Baking powder, Salt, Sugar, and Cream of Tarter in a mixing bowl. Mix well and work in shortening till mixture feels like cornmeal. Pour milk into flour mixture and mix well. Knead about 12-15 times. Break mixture into small balls (1/4 cup size - or less). Roll into balls and flatten (to 1/2" thickness) onto a greased cookie sheet. Brush with melted butter. Bake at 450 10-12 minutes.
While biscuits are in the oven pour honey into remaining butter in saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and set aside. When biscuits are done remove from oven and brush immediately with honey butter.
