Delightfully light and flaky biscuits don’t have to be a weekend-only treat. This easy homemade butter biscuit recipe is made from only three ingredients: butter, milk and our favorite kitchen shortcut, Bisquick™ mix. With just 10 minutes of prep time and less than 10 minutes to bake, this recipe is so simple that you might want to make a second batch of these classic butter biscuits to serve at the dinner table. Plus, if you’re looking to save even more time, you can skip the kneading step and make simple drop biscuits instead.
