Buttermilk Biscuits image

"My boyfriend and I were vacationing in Boulder, Colorado, when we discovered Dot's Diner, a cozy place that serves wonderful breakfasts," writes Kimberly McClain of Harris, Iowa. "The biscuit that came with my meal was baked to perfection. I would drive all the way to Colorado just to go to Dot's again." This classic recipe produces biscuits with a lovely light texture.
