About the Recipe

This recipe comes from Pam Martin-Allen (@sweetp) of Medina, TN, and has been awarded the Blue Ribbon Recipe badge by Just A Pinch Test Kitchen for its quality and simplicity.

Ingredients Needed:

  1. 2 cups self-rising flour
  2. 1 cup whipping cream
  3. 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

Instructions – How to Make Whipping Cream Biscuits:

  1. Mix Ingredients: Combine all ingredients in a bowl, stirring with a fork until blended. (Note: Adding sugar is optional, depending on whether you prefer a slightly sweeter biscuit.)
  2. Check the Dough: The dough should be stiff. If it's too crumbly, add a little more whipping cream to achieve the right consistency.
  3. Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead it 10-12 times to bring everything together smoothly.
  4. Roll & Cut: Roll the dough to about ½ inch thickness and use a 2-inch biscuit cutter to shape the biscuits.
  5. Prepare for Baking: Place the biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet.
  6. Brush for a Golden Finish: Lightly brush the surface of each biscuit with milk or melted butter to help them achieve a beautiful golden-brown color once baked.
  7. Bake: Set your oven to 450°F and bake the biscuits for about 10-12 minutes, or until they turn golden.
  8. Enjoy & Share! Once baked, these biscuits are ready to be served warm with butter, honey, or jam.
