Tip: I store my shortening in the freezer for the best pie crusts and biscuits. Tip: Don’t have buttermilk? No worries. Add 1 tablespoon white or apple cider vinegar per cup of milk and let it stand 5 minutes.
Tip: Biscuit dough should be slightly sticky before rolling out. Working with fingers lightly coated with flour or cocoa powder is better than adding more flour to the dough. *I used Hershey’s Special Dark because I love the rich color it gives but regular cocoa is fine. It is a mix of regular and Dutch process cocoas.
Gild the Lily: Drizzle with chocolate syrup or melted hot fudge ice cream sauce.
