3 cups AP flour (plus more for flouring or if sticky)
4 teaspoons Baking Powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons butter (frozen)
2-3 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
1 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup lowfat yogurt
1 whole egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup white sugar

1
Sift dry ingredients.

Remove butter from freezer and grate into flour mixture.

Stick butter and flour mixture in the freezer.
5
Combine wet ingredients and beat well.
6
Remove dry ingredients from freezer then dump wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a rubber spatula.
7
Knead the dough for 30 seconds. If the dough is too difficult to handle add flour in 1/4 cup increments.
8
Put dough in freezer for about 10 minutes (or until easy to mold).
9
Mold the dough into spheres or doughnut shapes then place dough on lightly greased pan. At this point, begin heating the oil.
10
Fry biscuits in oil (325F- 340 F) until golden then flip onto other side and fry until golden.
11
* For cinnamon vanilla glaze, combine 2 cups of confectioner's sugar, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 4.5 tbs of milk, and 1 tsp of lemon juice.
