How to make angel biscuits:

Sift dry ingredients and cut in Crisco until it looks like coarse meal. Dissolve yeast in warm water and add to dry ingredients gently. Pour in buttermilk and work to a nice dough. Roll out about 1/4 inch on a floured board and cut with biscuit cutters. Dip in melted butter and place in pans, arranging biscuits as Parker House rolls. Freeze and bake directly from the freezer at 400° for 15 minutes. (Need not rise.)
