Preparation

Step 1

Yield: approximately 40 oz. (same as 1 box Bisquick)
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, sugar (if using) and salt, and toss together.
Drop shortening into dry ingredients and use a pastry cutter to cut it in.
Continue using your pastry cutter (or two forks) to blend mixture together until it resembles small pebbles.
Note: you could combine everything together in the food processor if you want.
Transfer mixture to an air-tight container and store, refrigerated, for up to 3 months.
