In honor of our 42nd anniversary, I used a plate that my late Great Aunt Kitty gave to me. This one was actually painted by her teacher.
Ingredients
| 2 | cups flour | |
| 1 | tsp. sugar | |
| 1 | tsp. kosher salt | |
| 1 | Tbsp. baking powder | |
| 1 to 1½ | cup heavy cream | |
| 1 | Tbsp. butter, melted |
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a mixing bowl, stirring with a fork to blend. Slowly add the cream, stirring constantly, until the dough holds together.
- Knead gently on a lightly floured surface for about 1 minute. Pat the dough into a ½-inch thick round and cut into 12 wedges, or squares. Arrange the biscuits 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet and brush the tops with the melted butter.
- Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve warm.

That's really close to my cream scones recipe, to be honest. No salt though.
ReplyDeleteClotted cream and jam and you are pretty much sconin' it!
Yum. Now you made me wanna go bake. And it is almost midnight.
Note to self: only read Kitty's blog in the early part of the day.

I make these biscuits, too, sometimes. They are a nice change from my regular recipe. Only difference is that I dip the whole biscuit in melted butter before baking. Decadent, huh?
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary Kitty,
ReplyDeleteYour biscuit recipe sounds very easy and I'm going to try it. I love easy! The plate is a beautiful keepsake as is the sweet teacup! Your Aunt Kitty had a real talent. Happy 4th of July and thanks for joining me for tea.
Blessings,
Sandi
Happy Anniversary Kitty, 42 years is amazing! I just celebrated my 18th so I have a long way to go to reach your milestone. The plate is beautiful and the recipe looks delicious too :) I hope you have a blessed day together ♥
ReplyDeleteBeautiful plate and cup & saucer. How special that your aunt painted the cup & saucer! I make a scone recipe that uses that same technique with the cream -- it is my go-to scone recipe and turns out perfect everytime - I'll have to try these biscuits while I have all this company to eat them up :)
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th!
Blessings!

Kitty - I love how you WOW us with your gorgeous dishes, along with your super recipes. These sound terrific...thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary! The plate and cup are so pretty! And, the recipe makes me want to head to the kitchen an whip up a batch.
ReplyDeleteYour delicate cup/saucer and plate made a lovely gift for your wedding. I was a June bride too -- in 1975.
ReplyDeleteDebra
Made these this morning... yum! :)
ReplyDeleteThese look so good. Cream in biscuits...Yumm! Have a wonderful 4th.
ReplyDeleteKitty~ These are my kind of biscuits~ I'm thrilled to have the recipe! I love your Aunt's sweet painted forget-me-knots :) Happy Anniversary to you!
ReplyDeleteThe plate is a real treasure! I will have to make these biscuits. I am not a great biscuit maker!
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining ON THE MENU MONDAY.
Those sound delicious! That is a really special plate!
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty!
ReplyDeleteThese remind me of the scones I make with Bisquick. I will have to try this instead as it is such an easy recipe. My husband would LOVE them with sausage and gravy!
You blue dishes are very sweet!
Thanks for sharing at my party :)
