I have been searching for a light, fluffly biscuit for awhile. I have found it in this one. I'm eating it as I type with butter and syrup. REALLY GOOD!!! The ONLY thing I'd change is adding some salt. But once I put butter on it, really couldn't tell the difference. My grand-daughters put chocolate chips in some of the biscuits and we cut them in cookie size. The only thing I did different was bake them at 450 for about 18 minutes because 500 always make me nervous. These are a keeper.

These are nice, substantial biscuits. I love the flavor and the texture and I can't wait for berry season in Maine to come around this year so I can make up a batch when we get home from berry picking! I served these this time with delicious Vermont Creamery cultured butter and my own homemade strawberry jam. Easy and delicious, what could be better?

Oh, heck yeah! I've never been able to make a good, fluffy biscuit till I tried this method. So easy, so delicious--and the biscuits come out so tall and tender and pretty. I sent a picture message of them to my partner who said, "Where did you get those?" So that tells you what my biscuits normally look like! ;-) I left out the sugar because I just didn't want sweet biscuits, but with the sugar, they'd made excellent shortcakes. Love, love, love these! Thanks for posting!

I live in Aloha, OR (by Portland, OR). I use to be a full-time bookeeper but quit to stay home with my two boys. I love being home with them. Since being home I now have more time to cook and found that I enjoy it alot.
