Freezer Buttermilk Biscuits image

Another one of my favorites from Grandma's Best-Loved Recipes. Biscuits that you make ahead and freeze so that you have biscuits any time you want them. I used these for dinners, sausage gravy and biscuits or whenever I am in the mood for biscuits with jam or honey. Preparation time does not include freezing time.
