BRAN BISCUITS

Mix thoroughly bran, flour, baking powder, salt, sugar; add sufficient water to make soft dough; add melted shortening; roll out lightly to about ¼ inch thick on floured board; cut with biscuit cutter. Bake in hot oven 12 to 15 minutes.


CHEESE BISCUITS

Sift together flour, baking powder and salt; add shortening and cheese; rub in very lightly; add milk slowly, just enough to hold dough together. Turn out on floured board and roll about ½ inch thick; cut with small biscuit cutter. Bake in hot oven 12 to 15 minutes.
