When the hubby does something awesome or I need him to do something, then I make these for him for either breakfast or dinner. I think he is catching on, but will not say anything since he loves them. He calls them great sopping biscuits. He always wants these when I bake a ham and make red-eye gravy. My brother and I would always stop by this booth every year when we went to the state fair.

Heat oven to 450 degrees and bake for 10 - 12 minutes. Brush tops again with melted butter when you remove them from oven and serve.
  • Step 4
    These are great hot or cold or put one in the microwave for a few seconds to reheat.
