One fourth teaspoon Ginger
1 pn Ground clove
1/3 cup Vegetable shortening
1/3 cup Light brown sugar; firmly
packed
2 cup Selfrising flour

dough out to about a 1inch thickness, then cut into 2inch rounds with a
metal biscuit cutter. Arrange biscuits about 1inch apart on a lightly

oven for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Recipe yields about 12
biscuits. To serve, split biscuits and serve with your favorite hot and
spicy sausage patties.
