These were wonderful! I made them for Christmas dinner although I think that they might pair better with a lighter meal. They have great flavor, and I added a bit more lemon zest and dill. They smelled wonderful and tasted it as well. The dough was pretty sticky so I had trouble cutting out the biscuits and rolling it out. I ended up rolling the dough about as half as thin as it should have been but they still were good despite thiness. I think they might work better as drop biscuits and were very easy to make. My sister in law immediately asked for the recipe. Definitely a keeper!
