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.

These were very good biscuits! A tip for easy combination of the butter and flour mixture if you don't have a food processor is to grate the butter with a cheese grater, and pop it into the freezer for 5 minutes while you are mixing the dry ingredients. Then quickly mix in butter till course, then add cold milk and mix until combined. You still want to have small 'pockets' of the shredded butter... this is what makes them flaky. I prepared the dough in my stand mixer, as I do not have a food processor. I made made the dough and baked in a 8x8 cake pan and topped with whipped cream and strawberries for a shortcake. Delicious!

I've made a fair amount of biscuits in my life. These were the best I've ever made! I put all the dry ingredients into a large food processor and pulsed. Then I added the butter and processed it until it was incorporated. I added the milk straight into the processor while it was running until the dough formed a ball. This took less than five minutes and made clean up a breeze! I did not have the cream of tarter, but it turned out just fine...

At the risk of sounding like a real geek, working with this dough was like kneading a cloud, ha ha ha. Talk about soft and easy to handle. I think my oven must be 'off' because I had to bake these for almost 15 minutes. Boy, do they look nice! Mmmmmmmmmmm, warm from the oven, delicious! Not flaky like some biscuits (not quite the American biscuit recipe I was looking for) but absolutely wonderful. Will definitely make these again.

These buscuits turned out great. I've tried making biscuits before and they always turn out too dry or hard. I love these. They are super easy to make even for me. Thank you for sharing! :)

I was looking for a good biscuits recipe and I found it. I used to use baking soda but the cream of tartar makes a huge differece. They came out tasting like KFC biscuits and thats what I was looking for. Thanks for sharing.I will make it like this from now on.

Very quick and easy to make. My 11 year old daughter made them while I supervised. We rolled them too thin, so next time we will make sure they are thicker...practice makes perfect.

Made these for dinner to go with soup and they were great! I have a hard time with biscuits and these worked. I would say to add your milk slowly because I didn't need as much as was stated. Thanks for the recipe.
