2. Cut in the butter with a fork, add the milk all at once, and stir vigorously until the dough stiffens
3. Knead the dough in bowl until all clumped together.
4. place on floured surface and either press down with hands or roll out to 1/2 inch thick.
5. Cut into shapes with cup, biscuit cutter, or just use a knife to make squares!
6. Heat skillet to a low temperature.
7. Lightly oil pan and place one trial biscuit in pan. Cover with lid and let cook for about 3-4 minutes.

Each cook range is different, so try one biscuit first to get the feel for your needed settings, then you can "bake" them in bigger batches. Just put as any as will fit on the flat surface of the skillet.
