I used half and half instead of the cream with great results. They were so delicious for breakfast this morning! I loved the nuts and can't imagine them without them. These will be made often, guaranteed!

"Oh my God, these are sooooo good!" That's what we all kept saying as we ate these biscuits. I usually make scones from scratch and it takes a bit of time! Not only were these easy and fast, but at least a 10-stars rating.I added a 1/4 tsp of cinnamon to the batter and needed a little more than the specified amt of cream. I brushed the biscuits with cream and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar before baking. My family, especially my puppies, thanks you NurseDi, delicious !!!!

These were great! I used some new maple chips instead of the cinnamon and left out the pecans for my daughter. I also used milk and half/half instead of cream. Thank you!
