Crissi's Sweet Potato Biscuits

SUBMITTED BY: BALLYKFANATIC PHOTO BY: AMIJAY

"Yummy sweet potato biscuits that rival Steamer's biscuits in Chincoteague, Virginia. You'll taste no better than this! My family hates sweet potatoes, but they snatch these up every time I make them! You could also substitute pumpkin for the sweet potato and cardamom for the nutmeg."
