Directions

1 Heat oven to 450ºF.
2 In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in just enough whipping cream so dough leaves side of bowl and forms a ball. (If dough is too dry, mix in 1 to 2 teaspoons more whipping cream.)
3 Place dough on lightly floured surface; gently roll in flour to coat. Knead lightly 10 times, sprinkling with flour if dough is too sticky. Roll or pat 1/2 inch thick. Cut with floured 2-inch biscuit cutter. Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
4 Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Serve hot.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For attractive biscuits and even baking, roll or pat the dough without a lot of handling to an even thickness. Too much handling with too much flour gives you biscuits that are tough and dry.

Have not made yet. If this is the same recipe from 25 years ago, I know they are good. The recipe was on the back of the 5lb flour bag. Will be making them tomorrow..

These biscuits were REALLY good. Its my first time making biscuits from scratch and I love them! They're extremely soft and light... not too thick or anything. I had to add a bit more whipped cream to mix it but all in all I give them a 10!!!! You should give them a try!

These were good, but I ended up adding probably about 1/2 cup more of flour and a tablespoon of oil to help with the stickyness. They are incredibly sticky and you definitely will not be able to knead them following the recipe. Also, the texture and taste is more like a role/biscuit. I wouldn't say they are the "best" biscuits.
