Biscuits!

[fadedwings]

My husband loves biscuits. I’ve become a big fan as well. He doesn’t cook so it’s all up to me. Over the years I’ve been trying different recipes and seeing what I like best.

For a while I was using the Food Processor Baking Powder Biscuits out of the King Arthur Flour 200th Anniversary Cookbook but then I saw this one over at Kitchen Mage and liked that too but it wasn’t sweet enough for me so I made changes and the end result is pretty much making it a mix of those two recipes.

Keep in mind these are American Biscuits and that I’m from New England…My idea of what a biscuit should taste like isn’t not necessarily what yours is.

Parmesan Smashed Potatoes!

[zarhooie]

OMG. Jacob and I had the most fantastic smashed potatoes tonight! Here, have a not-recipe:

5-6 potatoes, peeled, quartered and boiled until soft
1/2 c parmesan cheese (we used the plastic bottle kind)
1/4 c heavy cream
2T butter
1/2 c sour cream

Smash all together with a potato masher. Voila! These would be extra tasty with a few tablespoons of crumbled bacon, or some fresh chives.

You're welcome. :)
