TWD: Basic Biscuits

Biscuits, biscuits, biscuits!
I love doing biscuits, I love eating biscuits  - I love biscuits!
Therefore, I am always happy if someone chooses a biscuit recipe for the weekly TWD rotation. As did Jennifer of Cooking for Comfort this time. Go to her page to find the recipe for Basic Biscuits, or have a look into Dorie's book on page 21.

This recipe truely deserve it's name. It is very basic and not too hard to handle. Because I live in Europe and have no biscuit cutter, my biscuits are usually, well - lets call them "creatively shaped". Maybe the only thing not really classic about these biscuits. They do not raise a lot, so I got slightly flat biscuits. But I don't mind at all!

I sprinkled some of them with slivered almonds, and think they did match very well. But in the end, the recipe does not need any dressing up, as the biscuits are perfect just the way they are!
