So glad you loved them, Yasmin! I think they are pretty darn wonderful, too.

Thank YOU, thank YOU for this recipe. I was craving biscuits and made these yesterday (2 days before my due date with our first). They were so easy to make AND my Southern husband declared them to be my best biscuits ever. Yay! I agree. Great recipe!!

Hey There,

We have a little bit in common.. I grew up in Auburn too… And I married a Georgia girl (she is from Dunwoody).

I came across your recipe and decided to try it. I had made biscuits Saturday morning using a different recipe that tasted OK but were flat.. I know about scrunching them together in the pan to get them to rise up but it didn’t work. So I made your recipe Sunday AM they were awesome. I didn’t have any shortening so I used lard instead (pork fat rules) and it seemed to work just fine.

I really like your site and am looking forward to trying some of the recipes on it.

@Clint: These biscuits aren’t sweet—the sugar just helps round out the flavor. If you are feeling timid, feel free to reduce the amount to your personal taste. And if you do make them, let us know how it goes!

LOL @ Amelia Saltsman’s comment above! I’m squarely in that category of southerner who believes (has believed?) sugar belongs in a beverage, not a biscuit! These biscuits look amazing, but, I’m curious, do they taste at all sweet? That would be a deal breaker for me. I’d love to hear from folks who’ve baked ‘em!

These look wonderful,and have decided I need to get all the ingredients to try them!

But,I do have to say, I am a northerner, have a southern Georgia Godmother, and my mother nor any of my relatives ever made sweet biscuits to go with our sausage gravy.

For the past few weeks I’ve been on a mission to discover the perfect southern style biscuit! I’ve made biscuits almost every single morning for about a month, and finally discovered a recipe I love! It’s very similar to this one, except for the sugar and heavy cream. I can’t wait to try your method! They look delicious!
