How To Make self-buttering biscuits

• Step 1
  Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. When your oven is up to temperature, place one tablespoon of butter in each of eight 1/2 pint wide mouth mason jars. Place them on a tray and heat in oven until the butter is melted. Remove from oven, and using a pot holder, pick up jar and swirl butter around the edges of each jar. Quickly stir milk into flour mixture until smooth, and using a large ice cream scoop, scoop a heaping spoonful of dough into each jar. Poke a butter knife in the center of each biscuit and move around a bit to loosen the biscuit from the bottom of the jar. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown on top and biscuit is cooked through. Remove from oven, gently run a knife around each biscuit and using a pot holder, turn each biscuit out on a platter. Serve with a nice big breakfast. Makes 8 large biscuits.
