Pecan Biscuit Spirals by Sarah Morris

2 c. flour

2 Tbs. sugar

1 Tbs. baking powder

½ tsp. salt

½ c. butter

1 egg, beaten

½ c. milk

1 Tbs. butter, melted

¼ c. pecans, finely chopped

3 Tbs. brown sugar

Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Make a well in the center. Combine eggs and milk and pour into the well all at once. Stir together until dough just clings together. Knead on floured surface 12-15 strokes. Roll into a rectangle. Spread melted butter over top of dough. Combine pecans and brown sugar and sprinkle over lower half the rectangle. Fold the top half of the dough over the half with the nuts and sugar. Cut the dough into 1 in. strips (for easy cutting use a pizza cutter). Holding the bottom of a strip, twist the top around 2-3 times to make a spiral. Place spirals on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 450° for 10 min.
