Hillbilly Biscuits

Not that we didn't have a good biscuit recipe, just not flaky like Miss Keri's (NOTE: flakey is good when talking about biscuits). SWMBO emphasizes that the batter can be refridgerated and only a few made at a time.

Keri:

Talking with wife and not too surprised that you recognized the recipe. This came from my wife's grandmother from the Minden Mines, MO/Pittsburgh, KS region of the country. Just up the road from you.
