Cook Time: 30 minPrep Time: 5 min
Yield: 2 servings 

Ingredients:
Bisquik
Buttermilk
Melted Unsalted Butter
Aluminum Pie Pans (or any pan or cookie sheet), generously buttered
Air Filled Cookie Sheet on rack at upper third of oven

Instructions:
In big mixing bowl, dump some Bisquik, about one cup per two persons.
Pour in some buttermilk. The amount depends on how wet you get the dough.
Use the spatula to stir slowly around the edges, lifting and pulling toward the center, to incorporate the milk into the Bisquik. Stir the least amount possible, until the dough forms a rough ball that kind of sticks together. You may have to add more milk, if it’s too stiff. Do not add more Bisquik, except at the last to coat the dough and only if needed because it is too wet.

Use the spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl to dump the dough onto a Bisquiked surface. Now you want to handle the dough the least amount you can. Using excess Bisquik, gather the dough into a ball. Squash it down. If it holds together now and is stiff enough, you can cut it. If not, sprinkle just a little more Bisquik, fold over, and flatten out. After the first cutting, keep folding over the scraps to make a ball, flatten it out, and cut until you are through. The last biscuits will be dryer and puff up higher and spread out less than the first ones, but the first ones will be lighter.

Arrange the biscuits about a half inch or an inch apart, keeping them closer to the center if you can.

Brush them with melted butter and put them in the oven with no edges hanging over the air-filled cookie sheet.

From a cold oven, it will take about 35-40 minutes at 425 degrees and about 25-30 minutes at 450 degrees. I rarely preheat the over, but when I do, I start checking about 15 minutes before the usual time for the biscuits to be done.

10 minutes before they are done, take them out, rearrange them so the soft sides are near the heat and the crisp sides are away from the heat. Brush them with butter and return them to the oven.
