Angel Biscuits

4 cups all purpose flour
2 cups buttermilk
1 tbsl sugar
2 tsp salt
1 tsp (baking) soda
3 tsp baking powder
1 cup shortening*
1 pkg dry yeast, dissolved in a little warm water**

Mix 2 cups of flour with remaining ingredients in a mixer. Then mix in remainder of flour. Knead, adding flour if necessary (Can be done by mixer or hand). Let rise 45 minutes, then punch down. Refrigerate and use as needed. Cut into desired shape and bake at 450 degrees F for 10-15 minutes.

* I don't keep shortening in my house so what I do is use 1/2 cup canola oil and add in an extra 1/2 cup flour
**or 2 tsps

The recipe is simple and quick for a wet dough that's easy to work with once it's risen a little and super easy to roll out after being cooled in the fridge. It is the perfect cross between a biscuit and a dinner roll, fluffy but also flaky from the oil.
