I lived my entire life believing these were made from Buttermilk, after all I have distinct memories of Hazel drinking buttermilk by the glass, but no, these are plain jane biscuits, but they are wonderful. I never use a biscuit cutter when I make these because they are more like her's when the edges are rough and they aren't pretty in shape. My father would say the only way to eat them is with sorghum, but that's a personal choice that works for him. ;)
