LIGHT AS A CLOUD SOUTHERN BISCUITS
These biscuits remind me so much of my wonderful mother. She got up every morning to make biscuits before we all left for school..When I can home from school, there were hot biscuits just coming out of the oven for our dinner. I didn't really realize how special they were until I didn't have them anymore. All of my friends in the neighborhood would come by and eat those cold biscuits off the stove. They were amazing. This recipe is close, but still not the same. Enjoy though.
