To me McDonald's biscuits don't compare to these. The texture and taste of these biscuits will make your taste buds want more and more. This will be my one and only recipe for making my biscuits.

I tried these a couple weeks ago and now the wife and kids request them every weekend. I add about 1/4c of 2% milk so the dough a little thinner and make drop biscuits instead of rolling it out and using a cutter. Amazing flavor, just go light on the cream of tartar, too much and it makes them taste too salty plus I use unsalted butter instead of margarine.
