These were very simple to make. I misread the directions and used 4 cups of flour. Luckily I realized what I did and simply doubled everything else too and ended up with a couple dozen tasty treats. I wasn't sure about the second addition of butter so ignored it and just used 1/3 cup. I might increase the amount of honey, I was hoping to be able to taste it in the biscuits a little, but couldn't. These were terrific with a sausage and bean soup I made. Thanks Love!!!

I thought these might turn out to be hard, as the batter was thick, but they actually turned out tender and tasty! I was a bit confused as to why butter was listed twice as an ingredient, so I decided to just add the first (larger) amount listed. I think next time I will halve the amount of salt, as the baking powder is already salty. I managed to get 11 biscuits out of the batter. These were very good biscuits, and well worth making again! Thanks for posting this!

These are more like muffins than biscuits- dense and thick. Be careful to only work the batter just until the ingredients are mixed. More mixing will make them tough. Used 5 T butter- real butter- not margarine- reduced the salt to 1 tsp and omitted the second amount of butter. These would be good as a breakfast biscuit maybe with some ham and cheese added or a small dollop of jam in the center. Pretty good recipe with potential. The addition of some sour cream may lighten these and offset some of the sweetness if a more savory biscuit is desired. Thanks for letting me play with your adopted recipe luvs!
