Combine dry ingredients; cut in shortening; stir in milk. Mix dough until it pulls away from the bowl. Dough should be sticky. Turn dough onto floured surface and knead about 15-20 turns.  Pat or roll out to 1” thick. Cut with large round cutter (or upside down cup). Repeat until all dough is used. Place on ungreased baking sheet; bake at 425 for 13-15 minutes. Dough can be made a day ahead and refrigerated, but may rise higher.
