Easy Drop Biscuits, these biscuits are best served right from the oven with a bit of butter and sweet honey or preserves...
These biscuits are called drop biscuits because you simply "drop" them on to your baking sheet and bake them in the oven. No need to roll and cut them out.
I make the biscuit dough in my food processor because it makes mixing in the cold butter with the flour so easy. You could also make these by hand without a food processor by using two knives to "cut" the butter into the flour. Little bits of butter are key to making light, flaky, moist biscuits.
