I tweaked the Gina's Biscuit
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I can't handle cayenne pepper so I substituted with about 1 teaspoon of chopped shallots. This I know upped it a knotched. ... My children loved it with apricot preserves and creamed grits.Read more

Not So Good
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I followed this recipe, with the exception of adding the Cayenne pepper, and they were tasteless. I had to throw them away.... Very disappointed all those ingredients were wasted.Read more

Loved them
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I always follow the original recipe the first time and then try variations. However, first time with this one I used less... Cayenne pepper as my husband doesn't like spicy food. Second time out I used the full amount. My family loves them. Also, I didn't read any of the reviews until now and will try adding garlic to them. I plan on bringing them to our office Thanksgiving pot luck.Read more

Too spicy for a biscuit
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

If I make these again, I will leave out the cayanne pepper. I don't know if it's a mid-west thing or not, but we don't like... spicy biscuits. We like them savory. And, I followed the recipe to a tee, but they were rubbery. I use a stand-a-lone thermometer in the oven so I know the temp was correct. I'm an excellent cook, so something this EZ should have came out correctly. Read more
