How to make it

  • Grease a 10 inch cake pan with Crisco, set aside
  • In large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder and sugar
  • Stir the ingredients with a fork
  • In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of heavy cream and the sour cream
  • Add the cream mixture to the dry ingredients, slowly
  • Mix lightly with a fork
  • Gather the dough together by hand
  • If it doesn't completely come together, add a little more of the heavy cream until it does
  • Pat the dough into a ball
  • Roll it out on a lightly floured board, forming a disc
  • With a biscuit cutter, cut into 12 biscuits
  • Dip both sides of each biscuit in melted butter
  • Place them in the prepared pan with sides touching
  • Place in a 400 degree oven for about 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned

    Rosemaryblue, thanks for the recipe. I made these today for breakfast. They were incredible and so easy to work with. Light, tender and excellent flavor. Just don't tell anyone about the fat content though. :)
