Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 7

Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray
2 cups Martha White® Self-Rising Flour
4 tablespoons brown sugar, divided
3 tablespoons Crisco® All-Vegetable Shortening
⅔ cup milk
½ cup mashed canned sweet potato or mashed cooked sweet potato
⅓ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray cookie sheet with no-stick cooking spray. Combine flour and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar in medium bowl; mix well. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Combine milk, sweet potato and sour cream in small bowl; blend well. Add to flour mixture all at once, stirring just until moistened (if dough is too dry, add additional milk 1 teaspoon at a time, until dry ingredients are moistened). Drop dough by 1/4 cupfuls onto prepared cookie sheet. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar.
  • Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Immediately remove from cookie sheet. Serve warm.
