Recipe For Homemade Freezer Biscuits

Homemade Freezer Biscuits

There is a product in the freezer section that comes in a blue bag with a little dough man on the front. They are ready to bake biscuits. I have tried them and they are mighty convenient for a quick breakfast or dinner. A bag of ten biscuits retails for approximately $3.09. Do you know how much cheaper it is to make your own??? The following recipe made two bags of 13 biscuits each…for a lot less than retail.
