2 cups self-rising flour
2 tablespoons sugar
½ cup shortening
¾ cup milk
½ cup red jam

Preheat oven to 425°F.  Lightly spray a large baking sheet with non-stick vegetable spray.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and sugar; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.  Stir in milk until dough forms.  On a lightly floured board, knead gently 12 times.  Roll out to ¼-inch thickness; cut with 2-inch biscuit cutter.  Place half the circles, 1-inch apart, on prepared baking sheet.

With a small biscuit cutter, cut a hole in the center of the of the remaining circles; place on top of the circles on the baking sheet.  Spoon 1 teaspoon of jam in the center of the circle

Bake 12 to 15 minutes until puffed and lightly golden brown.  Remove from baking sheet; cool on a wire rack.
