American-Style Biscuits
I make these to use up whey that was left over from straining yogurt.
Whey makes them soft and fluffy, but they're also pretty delicious with milk.
Sift the dry ingredients if you have time.
When stretching out the dough, do so carefully so that you don't rip the bag.
The bottom is prone to burning while baking, so bake on the top level.
They're made sweet to be eaten as-is. If you're making them for breakfast, reduce the amount of sugar by half. For 10, 5 cm [2.0 in] diameter. Recipe by cafe-cafe

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add the ○ dry ingredients to a bowl and use a whisk to mix together. Make sure there are no lumps.
- 2
Cut the butter into 1 cm cubes and cool. You can also use a chilled spoon to reduce their size before mixing them in.
- 3
Mix the butter in using a spatula in a cutting motion. Use your hands at the end to knead into a crumbly texture.
- 4
Make a depression in the center and add the whey (or milk) in 2-3 parts. Let it soak in without kneading. Gather it together in one lump and place in a plastic bag.
- 5
Stretch it out to a 1 cm thinness while still in the bag (it should be 15 x 20 cm large). Using a rolling pin helps things go more quickly. Let sit in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.
- 6
Preheat the oven to 200℃. Remove the dough from the bag, and fold two or three times. Press down on it to get it to stick together.
- 7
Use a knife or a cookie cutter to make the individual biscuits. Brush milk on top, place on a baking pan lined with parchment paper, and bake at 200 ℃ for 18 minutes.
- 8
They're delicious hot from the oven! If they cool down too much, you can warm them up a bit and enjoy with butter or jam.

After many trials, this is closest to the original.Stop immediately once the dough has formed. Do not over-knead, or it won't crack. It's fine if it's slightly powdery.Mix briskly without over thinking.During the hot season, let the dough cool in the fridge, then the scones will crack when baking. For about 6 cm × 6 biscuits.

Southern Biscuits Southern Biscuits
This is a recipe that my family has used since I was a little girl in Georgia. My Papa was stationed at the Marine Corps logistics base in Albany GA in the early 80's, and the church on base had made a cook book to sell at a fund raiser. My Mema (Mom), a beautiful woman and cook, bought the book. Unfortunately the book being made by volunteers long before computers ment that there were quite a few editing errors. My mother had to figure out the temperature and time for this recipe which has been added here. I can promise you that you will love these. Marines would beg my Father for a dinner invite if Mema was making her biscuits and I must say that of my friends that have had these I have received the same rock star status.

KFC-Style Biscuits Made at Home KFC-Style Biscuits Made at Home
I love KFC biscuits! So I made them in my way.The tip is not to knead the dough in Step 4. For Step 6, you'll be making layers by repeating the process several times, but if you do it too much it won't plump up, so only do it about 3-4 times.When cutting your biscuits out, the dough should be 3-4 cm thick. If you want it to crack while baking, powder a small amount of flour on the folded size of the dough. Do not powder both sides or it won't stick at all! For 5-6 7-8 cm [2.8-3.1 in] diameter pieces.
