Before making this yummy item, I was very afraid, thinking of its difficulties. And my expectation level was not so high as I was going to make it for the first time in my kitchen. But when I started to pick the available ingredients and began to make them, I got myself completely wrong.

Because I found this recipe, most of the straight-going recipes contain a cup of all-purpose flour, buttermilk, frozen butter shortening, and a few other additional ingredients. The main and particular part is drizzling the pure honey over the hot biscuits.

  • Butter- 3 tsp.

  • Honey- 4 tsp.

  • Tools
