"These biscuits are easy to whip together and bake up nice.
I found this recipe in a Taste of Home book. They are great with ham or turkey dinners. Also good with chili or other favorite soups."

These turned out terrific. I cut the recipe in half, and made them in the food processor. They were light and fluffy. Served with a pork, hominy, and tomatillo stew. -
Super simple and tasty. I used my food processor to cut the butter into the dry ingredients. The texture was so light, unlike any drop biscuit I had made before. I will definitely make these again. -
There's nothing that I enjoy more than simple, TASTY recipes that only require ingredients I have on hand but still turn out fantastic! I made these for http://kittencalskitchen.com/forum/index.php?topic=2339.msg44408;topicseen#msg44408 to go with cold gazpacho soup and they smelled amazing and tasted even better, if that's possible! Superb recipe find! -
Very simple to put together and just as tasty. I made sure to sift the flour so the texture was light and not dense. I also substituted buttermilk so there was no need for additional butter at the end. Perfect!
