• 7. And in 5 minutes, this is all that's left..so rich and tasty.. If you want the filling to show like the picture, for presentation...every 5 minutes or so, take a spoon and pull back the biscuit from the center of the casserole, until it cooks enough to stay. I dollop my biscuit batter around the edges of the casserole. If you don't keep pulling it back till it's set, it won't hurt anything. The biscuit will just completely cover the delicious filling. In the picture above, I left it cover the casserole, then cut a hole in the center, so it could bubble out a bit..
