Pre-heat oven to 425°.

Mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

Slice the butter into the flour mixture, and mix together with a pastry blender.

Make a well in the center of your mixture, and add the milk. Mix together well.

Sprinkle a handful of flour on a clean surface. Take dough and knead a bit of flour into it, shaping it with your hands. Roll the dough out to about a 1-2 inch thickness with a rolling pin.

Cut biscuits out with either a biscuit cutter or a cup/glass. Place biscuits in a greased pan or iron skillet.

Brush tops of biscuits with a bit of melted butter, if desired.

Bake at 425° for about 20 minutes or until the biscuit tops begin to turn a warm golden hue.

Serve while warm with butter, jam, honey, strawberry jam, blackberry jam, or all by themselves. Enjoy!
