MOMMA SWEET BISCUITS

Steps:

• Heat cooking oil, medium heat. Open biscuits and place on a flat surface while oil reaches the perfect temperature.
• Test your oil temp by applying a few drops of water and if it's hot enough to fry your biscuits the water will pop.
• Prepare your brown sugar glaze in a wide deep bowl. Brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, a squeeze of fresh lemon, and regular sugar. Mix all ingredients together.
• Then add your warm margarine to the mixture.
• Place the bowl in the microwave and allow the mixture to become a glaze.
• Place your biscuits in the hot cooking oil, cook biscuits on both sides. First side about 30 seconds.
• Then flip to the other side. Once golden brown, full and fluffy they are ready.
• Place hot biscuits straight from the hot oil into the glaze. Mix well allow every biscuit to become glazed.
• Arrange momma sweet biscuits on a platter and set up for your presentation.
• Sprinkle powder sugar on your biscuits and serve your guests. NOW GO COOK!!

SWEET BISCUITS FOR BREAKFAST OR SHORTCAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400, I place a rack in lowest position in the oven.
• Combine dry ingredients.
• Cut in butter.
• Stir in liquid until it just begins to pull from the sides- it will be pretty moist.
• Spread 1/4 C flour on a pastry board and dump the dough onto the flour.
• Gently turn the dough until all sides are covered with flour.
• Knead by gently rubbing the dough into the flour, a scant 8 to 10 turns.
• Pat the dough into a 1 inch thich slab.
• Cut into rounds with a sharp round biscuit cutter- I use a 2 1/2 inch cutter-- you can push the scraps together to make room to cut a few more, try not to knead it too much.
• Place on insulated cookie sheet about 1/2 inch apart.
• Put in HOT oven and bake for 12- 15 minutes.
• You can test by lifting the top layer of the center biscuit; if it's done it will look dry inside and the edges will be golden.
• (I get 9 biscuits when I use a 2 1/2" cutter).

MOMMA'S MCBISCUITS

Steps:

• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels. When cooled, chop the bacon.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Separate biscuits and pull each biscuit into halves. Press 2 biscuit halves into a muffin cup, molding the dough to the inside to make a dough cup. Repeat with remaining dough to make 12 biscuit cups.
• Whisk eggs and milk together in a bowl until thoroughly combined. Spoon each biscuit cup about half full of egg mixture and top with about 1 tablespoon bacon and about 1 1/2 teaspoon Cheddar cheese per biscuit.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuit crust is browned, the cheese is melted and bubbling, and the egg center is set, about 20 minutes.

MOM'S BISCUITS

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients.
• Cut in shortening.
• add just enough milk to make the mixture moist, you probably won't use the full 1/2 cup.
• Knead lightly until smooth. Don't over do it. If you do, you will have a hard flat biscut instead of one that is light and fluffy.
• Press dough flat to 1/2 inch. Cut into 2 inch circles.
• Place biscuits shoulder to shoulder on ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake at 425 for 8-10 minutes.
