The recipe we use in our household is from an old National Grange Cookbook. This is often Sunday night fare for us--especially if there is any honey, molasses, or, better yet, company on hand! We love them.
Cloud Biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tablespoon sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup milk
Sift dry ingredients together. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg and milk. Knead. Roll until 3/4-inch thick, cut with biscuit cutter. Place on ungreased baking sheet. Brush tops with a little milk. Bake in 450-degree oven for 10 to 14 minutes or until tops are golden brown.

I had used this recipe years ago and it was a favorite. I happened to think of it to make this Sunday evening so I did a Google search because I couldn't remember where i had the recipe. What a surprise to find this blog with old friends.
