My biscuits are (I'm gonna try to go by memory) 1 cup AP 1.5 teaspoon baking powder 1/8 teaspoon salt 2/3 cup Heavy Cream (or buttermilk) That makes 3 or 4 depending on how big you like them. Sometimes add other flavours to the batter depending on what I'm making with them. Much better then the dried out hockey pucks at popeyes. ;) Shawn .... I had a monumental idea this morning, but I didn't like it. --- Talisman v0.43-dev (Windows/x86) * Origin: Tiny's BBS II - tinysbbs.com:4323/ssh:4322 (1:229/452) .
