These have an American taste. Even though they're just ordinary biscuits, my husband took one bite and said, 'Delicious!' Split them in half and enjoy with butter, syrup, or jam as you like.

The story behind this recipe
My husband likes savory biscuits. Sweet scones don't get this kind of reaction from him.
