Biscuit Mix
"This was inspired by PetitFour's Carolina's Buttermilk Biscuits #52198. I needed a make-ahead biscuit mix so I adapted this fabulous recipe to my needs. For fresh biscuit snobs, you will be amazed by PetitFour's biscuits. The texture, aroma, and flavor are amazing. Mine are in a lesser caste, but still (according to DH) quite tasty."

Super easy and super good! I've been looking for a recipe that uses butter instead of shortening. This is now the house biscuit recipe! Like the other 2 chefs commenting, I used a blend of all-purpose flour and whole wheat pastry flour, a cup and a half of each. The biscuits are beautiful, nicely textured and yummy. Thanks for such a good recipe! -
Easy recipe, the biscuits were very good and the directions were quite accurate. We used them for biscuits and gravy for breakfast and I used powdered buttermilk instead of regular powdered milk. I will be making these again. -
Just made this recipe for the family breakfast and it enjoyed by all. Substituted 1 cup of whole wheat flour. Texture was great - even the kids loved them. -
This is a super easy biscuit recipe. I was out of bread and wanted something to eat with my eggs, so I used this recipe since I had everything right in my cupboard. I substituted half the flour for whole wheat flour. These biscuits had great texture.
