I'm not a biscuit maker, but you gotta try these!

Amy Brace

So, I'm not from The South, but I do love a good biscuit! My mom found a recipe for biscuits that just seemed a little too good to be true. There were only two ingredients, heavy cream and self-rising flour. Equal weight of each. So obviously we had to try it. And, it was delicious! Big fluffy biscuits with a nice golden brown crust on the top.

These two ingredients. Equal weight of each, which ended up being 1 lb 1/2 ounce of each for me. Preheat the oven to 500, yes, 500 degrees. While your oven is preheating kneed the dough 5-6 times. Make sure you don't over mix the dough. Cut them into the shape you desire, spray a pan and voila! Soon to biscuits! Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.

Here they are! The little golden yummyness. Fresh out of the oven. Add your choice of topping, butter, honey, jelly, or whatever else you put on your biscuits.

They even have a baked in guide where to split them! You're welcome.

No messy crumbs or flakes. Simple biscuits in minutes. Yup I'll be making these again! Try them and let me know what you think!
