Mary's Sweet Drop Biscuits image

Don't ask me who Mary is, 'cause I don't know! I found this recipe in some hand-written files. These are easy to make (like most biscuits) and taste great with butter and jam, berries and cream, or a slightly sweet dinner dish.

Time 22m

Yield 16 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
5 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup shortening (must be cold!)
1 1/4 cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cream of tartar, and salt. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender (or 2 knives) until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk and vanilla extract and mix until just combined.
  • Drop biscuits onto a cookie sheets (use a 1/4 cup measure and space 2 inches apart).
  • Place cookie sheets on 2 oven racks near the center of the oven. Bake biscuits for 12-15 minutes, until they are golden brown, rotating cookie sheets between the upper and lower racks halfway through baking time.
  • Serve warm.

These biscuits were a total disaster. They were dry, crumbly, and they had no flavor. I would not recommend this recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of biscuits, but these were actually pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and the glaze was the perfect amount of sweetness.

These biscuits are a staple in my kitchen. I make them all the time, and they're always a hit. They're so versatile, and they can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

I was really disappointed with these biscuits. They were dense and crumbly, and they didn't have much flavor.

These biscuits are the perfect comfort food. They're so warm and inviting, and they always make me feel better when I'm feeling down.

I've made these biscuits several times now and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're so light and fluffy, and the glaze is the perfect finishing touch.

Not a fan. I found the biscuits to be too dry and bland.

These biscuits were a hit! They were so easy to make and turned out perfectly. I loved the sweet glaze on top.
