Had these at City Tavern - made them up for my family just before Hurrican Sandy hit - they were so easy and delicious - total comfort food as we live in the aftermath of the storm. Memories made.

Excellent! Try to do the potato part the day before.

I cut the recipe in half and used a 9x13 baking pan.

Before placing in the baking pan, I dipped both top and bottom in regular (salted melted butter. Be sure to place them the 1" apart, they are very moist and need the heat / air circulation to cook. I still needed to bake mine about 10 min longer.

They are so tender and delicious and the browned, buttery, salty outside gives way to the tender, moist, sweet inside. These are so good, you will probably pass on adding any of the normal biscuit toppings.

Nice and super easy! Tastes great the next day, too! You can make these into cookies, too, by using straight milk instead of the cream.

This was a nice recipe to prepare. The dough was very easy handle and the end result was delicious. The biscuits are sweet. They could probably be cut into wedges to make scones very successfully. They are excellent right out of the oven, and we are looking forward to having them for breakfast tomorrow at room temperature. I didn't have enough cream so had to use 2% milk for about half of the liquid...it worked fine.
