ANGEL BISCUITS 
1 tsp. dry yeast
3 tbsp. warm water
2 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. sugar
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. butter
3/4 c. (about) buttermilk

In a 1 cup measure dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, soda and salt. Cut in butter until its fine. Stir in yeast mixture and enough of the buttermilk to make a fairly soft dough. Turn out as pastry cloth. Knead a few times to smooth dough. With rolling pin roll dough to 1/2 inch thickness, cut with a round floured 2 inch cutter. Place a few inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. Bake in 400 degree oven for 15-18 minutes. Serve hot. Makes about 2 dozen.
