: Combine flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda in large mixing bowl. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or two knives until mixture is crumbly. Add buttermilk, all at once to dry ingredients, stirring with a fork until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Turn dough out onto floured surface and knead gently 8 to 10 times. Roll or pat dough to ¾” (2 cm) thickness. Cut with floured 3” (8 cm) round cutter. Place biscuits over filling. Brush with additional evaporated milk. Bake in preheated oven, 15-18 minutes, or until biscuits are golden and filling is bubbly.
