Today pretty much sucked. Just picture 8 year old drama queen extraordinaire plus embarrassing failed attempt at dental work...probably 'nuff said. But I feel like saying SOOO much more. But I won't.
So I figured what better way to salvage the day than to finally succeed at biscuit making. I turned to the recipe recommended to me by Tiffany at Eat at Home after my last failed attempt. The recipe is certainly simple enough...here it is for ya:
2 cups flour
salt, a pinch or two
heaping Tbs. baking powder
1/4 - 1/3 cup butter
milk, nearly 1 cup
Stir together the dry ingredients. Cut in the butter. Stir in the milk to form a ball of dough. On a floured surface, pat or roll the dough out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into circles and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes.
Here's their before pic.
Look how much they puff up! They were so yummy...I should have added more salt than I did was the only problem . Well, that and the biscuit snatcher!
The biscuits were really good but hardly solved any of our dental problems.
Oh well...at least I got to see Twilight yesterday with my good friend Lisa! That didn't suck. HA! That was almost a pun. Sort of.

Those look like they'd be good with some gravy! course that's the southerner in me talking :)
Ah gravy, I'm not too good at that either! hehe
Such fluffy biscuits. I've not had luck with biscuit making because all the good recipes look like this one - a little of this, some of that. I can't handle it! I need precise measurements! I've been assured that it is practice that gives you the feel of the dough. Yours look very successful!
I love blogs that share yummy recipes! I will be back to browse around:) Thanks for stopping by on my SITS day.
Those look great! They're so much prettier than mine. Gravy would be good on them, but I don't eat it often - it fights me back!
Thanks for stopping by my SITS day and leaving comments. I am so hungry I wish I could eat those biscuits. Yum
