The Sweet Biscuit is such an easy preparation to make for Strawberry Shortcake and any other fruit filling! You can easily make any cobbler by baking it over your your favorite filling such as apples, blueberries, peaches, rhubarb, etc. Such an easy dessert!

My Recipe for a Sweet Buttermilk Biscuit

  • 4 Cups Flour
  • 6 0z Butter
  • 4 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 2 cups Buttermilk
  • some extra flour

Simply mix together all the dry ingredients, cut in the butter to the flour.

Next mix in the buttermilk and ONLY mix by hand until incorporated.  Next flour your hands and flour a cutting board, scoop out dough and form into any size biscuits you like and place in a 9×13 baking pan.  Place them together tightly, when baked they will bake together yet be distinctly seperate portions.

Brush with melted butter and bake at 425 degrees until done and nice and golden brown.

For your cobbler simply drop spoon fulls of dough over you filling and bake.
