Great biscuits! they went really well with your Goulash; I used Splenda instead of sugar, it worked very well.Beautiful high risin golden biscuits, but I only baked them for about 20 minutes. Will be making them again, thanks for sharing.

Good biscuits, but kind of "eggy" texture. Not as flaky as many of the other recipes I have tried.

Great Biscuits Evelyn. We really enjoyed these delicious, tender buttermilk biscuits. They were light, fluffy and incredible tasting. I served them with a spicy bean casserole, we couldn't have asked for a better meal. Thank you so much for sharing. I will be making these again often...Kudos...Kato :)
