Cream Biscuits

by Merissa on July 22, 2011

I've been on the hunt for a good biscuit recipe for a long time. While I don't know if this one is THE one, it's pretty close. These biscuits bake up very nice and fluffy. Slather them with a big pile of jam and some homemade butter and you are good to go.

Cream Biscuits

What you need:

  • 2 c. flour + a little more
  • 1 T. baking powder
  • 2 t. sugar
  • 1 t. salt
  • 1 1/2 c. cream
  • 5 T softened butter

Mix together all the ingredients. You may need a little more flour.

Don't knead the dough. Roll out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut it into biscuit shapes with a biscuit cutter or a glass cup.

Place the biscuits on a greased cookie sheet. Bake at 425F for about 15 minutes or until slightly brown on the tops.

This may be a silly question but what kind of cream did you use?? I have been looking for a good biscuit recipe for years.

I just used cream that I skimmed from the top of my milk(because we get it fresh) but any heavy cream will work.
