Buttermilk biscuits with a honey glaze

Ingredients

• 2 cups of self rising flour
• 1/2 cup of crisco (vegetable shortening)  
• 1/2 cup of whole buttermilk
• 1/4 cup of honey 
• 1/4 cup of melted butter

Directions

1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. 
2. Take your cast iron skillet and line it with a little bit of crisco to prevent any sticking. 
3. Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix by hand. 
4. Cover your hands in flour to prevent the dough from sticking to you. 
5. Roll dough balls a tad smaller than the size you want your biscuits to be when done. 
6. Line your biscuits in the cast iron and put them in the over.
7. While waiting on your biscuits to cook combine your honey and butter in a bowl. 
8. Take them out when they are golden brown on the top.
9. While your biscuits are still warm drizzle your honey butter mixture on the top.
