These biscuits were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my biscuits turned out flat and dense. They didn't look anything like the picture.

I made these biscuits for my kids and they loved them! They gobbled them up in no time. I'll definitely be making them again soon.

These biscuits were way too greasy for my taste. I think I'll stick to baked biscuits next time.

I'm not a huge fan of fried foods, but these biscuits were an exception. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would definitely make them again.

I tried this recipe and it was a total disaster! The biscuits were dry and crumbly, and they didn't taste anything like the picture.

These biscuits were a hit at my family reunion! Everyone loved them, and I even got asked for the recipe. Thanks for sharing!

Meh, these biscuits were just okay. They weren't as crispy as I was expecting, and the flavor was a bit bland.

I've been looking for a good fried biscuit recipe for ages, and this one is definitely a keeper. The biscuits were fluffy on the inside and had a perfectly crispy crust. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
