cut shortening into dry mix until it resembles coarse cornmeal

for muffins: mix 2 cups baking mix with 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 beaten egg, and 2/3 cup milk. mix and add in anything you desire (chocolate chips, blueberries, cranberries, or you could just sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top after you put the batter in your muffin tins). bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
