These were really good. I didn't look at how many servings it makes before I started to make the recipe - it only makes 4 biscuits. The next time I make these I'll definitely double or triple the recipe. I didn't have shortening so I just used the same amount of butter and they still turned out great. I also love cheese so I added extra. I'm definitely going to be making more of these.

This is the best recipe I have ever found for biscuits that actually turned out for me! I omitted the onion and did not have buttermilk, but instead used 2% milk with lemon juice. They were fluffy, soft, and super tasty! Thanks for the great recipe that gave my husband and I renewed hope in my baking ability! :)

I used 1/2 cup of muenster cheese and a dash of parm instead of cheddar. I don't like to cook with shortening so a bit of butter subbed fine as well.

These are fabulous!! Like most cooks, I changed everything ;-). We are working with a dairy allergy, so I subbed organic coconut oil and daiya. I also added bacon, because it just seemed like a good idea. They are wonderful. Kudos to the cook who can write a recipe that withstands everyone's changes and still gets 5 stars!!

Great easy bread recipe! I have a horrible time with breads and I was able to pull this one off!

These were very dry. They also needed a little melted butter on top to add a little flavor.

I used whole wheat white flour and added a tsp. of garlic. I did have to add just a little more buttermilk, but I think it was because of the flour I used. These were good, though I wish they were a little fluffier and they were a bit dry. Next time, I'd use all baking powder and perhaps use cold butter (and perhaps more?)instead of shortening.
