This is the biscuit recipe I use when I make biscuits. It's easy to follow and quick to make. I always have to at least double, if not triple, the recipe because they are that good and never last any length of time in my house when they get made. Read more :) I got this recipe from my 1972 Better Homes and Gardens cookbook that used to be my mom's before she gave it to me. See less
