Best Homemade Biscuits Recipe
I found this recipe in an Easter basket full of recipes in a (now closed) Indiana antique shop.
Steps 1 – 3 are clipped from somewhere with handwritten notes. “These are good. Best biscuits ever” is penned across the top of it. They are right!

Cut into pieces from some sort of printed material, handwritten comments assured that this recipe was indeed the "Best Biscuit Recipe Ever!"
