Homemade Biscuits

I finally made homemade biscuits. Im sure lots of you have already ventured down this road but for me it was a first and I am pretty excited about it. It is something I have been wanting to do for a long time.

The first thing I have to say about it is that I am shocked at how CHEAP it was to do this. And on top of that it was so easy. The only downside about it (besides the mess in my kitchen) is that it was a little time consuming. Not a whole lot but with 2 babies my time is very precious and very rarely does it go without interruption. But I only used 3 ingredients and not much of them either. And how did they taste? I thought they tasted pretty good. They weren't the fluffiest biscuits I've ever eaten but I have time for that. I did learn about how thin I needed to roll the dough out because a few of the biscuits were a little thinner than I liked. When my timer went off I though they were the perfect color but I was in the middle of frying an egg and just those few seconds it took me to finish up they got a little darker than I would have liked. I ate mine crumbled up in gravy but Brad chose to have egg biscuits with his. The biscuits weren't burnt in any way but the outside did crumble very easy so his biscuit broke in half when he went to bite in it. So there are a few things I have to work on but overall I am satisfied with how they turned out and I wouldn't be bothered if they turned out like they did from here on out. You might be able to tell in the picture that one has a little character...haha. That one was from my left over dough and I have to say that it was my favorite.
