DIRECTIONS
In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cream of tartar. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Roll or pat into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Spread with butter. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over butter.
Cut into five 2-in. strips; stack strips on top of each other. Cut into six 2-in. pieces; place cut side down in six greased muffin cups. Bake at 425 degrees F for 11-14 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to wire racks. Serve warm.

This was OK. The directions weren't too clear about how to arrange it into the muffin pans, so I made it into little cups and also made some on the cookie sheet. The dough gave me way more than 6 (I got about 20 in the way I arranged it), but they tasted great! I'll make it again, but maybe I'll wait for a couple of months or so. Oh, I also used cinnamon sugar to save time combining sugar and cinnamon. :) Since I didnt' want to use shortening, I used 1/2 cup of applesauce and 1/2 tbsp of butter. Turned out wonderful.

These tasted great! They are exactly like dinner biscuits with an added hint of sweet. I used lard instead of shortening, it made the biscuit flaky without loosing any flavor. I didnt get how to form the dough so I just rolled everything up like a cinnamon roll. In the end they look just like pin wheels.

This is GREAT! Me and my family LOVED them. And, it's a great recipe that kids can help with (thanks, Maggie). Highly recommend it to anyone. And, you can really get creative with this if you want. I used butter instead of shortening and used brown sugar instead of white. They came out great.
