These taste excellent, but they didn't rise very much. I am probably doing something wrong though. Definitely an easy recipe, I will be making these again!

These were actually the best biscuits i've made. I only gave them a 4 instead of a 5 cause it seemed to be lacking something, not sure what, but being that i topped them with gravy for breakfast they were awesome. It made 9 biscuits for me that i cut out with a drinking glass. I baked them for 3 minutes longer than the recipe said just for extra browness to suit my liking. Overall, this gets put in my binder and the old recipe gets tossed out. TY!

The best!! I have tried dozens of biscuit recipes, and for some reason, managed to turn them all into hard lumps. But these survived, and went on to bake into light, flaky, delicious biscuits! Wonderful flavor, super texture- I'm so excited, I think I'll eat them all!

Absolutely fabulous, easy, tasty recipe - thank you! I used a little more sugar in my recipe, as we like our biscuits sweet, and used butter-flavored crisco - otherwise followed recipe exactly. Delicious!

I failed :o( And I SO didn't want to! I followed the directions to a "T" (because I have NEVER been able to make a proper biscuit) but I had to bake them longer just to get some color on them. The tops were ok but had a strange after taste. The bottoms were crispy yet still tasted like flour (??). I'm not sure what I did but I'll keep trying with different recipes. Maybe, eventually, one of these years, I'll be able to make a proper biscuit ::sigh::

great and simple recipe for breakfast biscuits from scratch I skipped the cream of tartar. Let's face it, who has any of that in an average pantry? Frankly i just skipped entirely and the biscuits were great!

This was my first attempt at baking biscuits and these were marvelous. I only used half of the listed butter (actually Country Crock butter substitute) and used olive oil to make up the difference. A healthier biscuit but still tasty!

OUTSTANDING! I used 1-1/2 times the amount of each ingredient for the 4 serving recipe (except for the salt) and was rewarded with 15 tall, beautiful, tasty biscuits that were yummy plain, with butter, and slathered with the Sausage Gravy III recipe.

The dough was easy to work with. The problem was probably my oven, but these burned on the bottom and didn't really brown on the top.

My biscuits looked absolutely great, but they tasted funny! When I made the recipe, it was supposed to make four servings and it called for 4 teaspoons of baking powder. I'm a new cook and I used baking soda instead of baking powder (didn't have powder). I just did some research and read that baking soda is four times as strong as baking powder. Perhaps this is why my biscuits tasted funny? I guess I will have to be more careful next time when adding ingredients. Other than this, they were great. I'll definitely try them again. UPDATE: when baking powder and not baking soda is used, these biscuits are perfect. I’ve never tried another biscuit recipe. :)

These worked very well and tasted good as bases for my Tomato & Bacon Cups (from this site)

I made these biscuits a few weeks ago and they were super easy and really good and simple. I actually made these as a topping for chicken pot pie IX from this site and it was really good. (See my review on it for more details) Thanks dakota!

These have worked for me EVERY time I've made them. The only thing I do different is roll the dough a little thinner, then fold over once and cut as usual. This creates a natural "center" that the biscuit opens right to. Love this with honey on top.

OMG, I have never been able to make biscuits. I cut the butter and flour together in the food processor and it came out perfect. Kneeded them lightly 3 or 4 turns and patted them out using 3/4 inch sticks as a guide and cut them with a water glass. I got six good sized biscuits and baked them in a cast iron frying pan and it took about 17 minutes untill they were done and they doubled in heigth. Served them with sausage gravy and my husband and his brother ate them all and said they were the best ever. I will have to make them again so I can taste them. I am sure I will be making these a lot from now on. Never will buy expensive biscuits in a can again.
