Biscuits with Sea Salt { Giveaway Closed}

american biscuits  

When I say biscuits, you think cookies, right? Well, at least this is what I used to think, but then I saw the American Biscuits, and boy was I glad!

If you’re not familiar with American Biscuits, then you should know that they are similar to English Scones, but the biscuits are lighter, fluffier and flaky. Scones can be served on their own, with cream, jam, honey, and you can mix different dry fruits in its dough. Scones can be glazed with lemon glaze, chocolate, or strawberry. However, the American Biscuits are served with soup or as a quick bread.

Scones or biscuits, they both tastes amazingly delicious with good quality butter. I use Lurpak in all my baking, and making these biscuits require the best butter you can get. The flavor of a tasty biscuit comes mainly from the butter.
