Shirley Corriher's touch-of-grace biscuits from Food52

These biscuits are delicious! They are the softer type of biscuits, better for spreading with butter, honey, or jam than for biscuits & gravy, which do better with a firmer, flakier biscuit, in my opinion. They would also be great with fried chicken, hot sauce, and honey! When I made them last night, I used half a stick of butter instead of shortening. I also used plain old AP flour with 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder and 1 tsp. salt instead of the self-rising flour/salt called for.
