Cream Biscuits

This recipe is from www.foodnetwork.com....the southern Queen Paula Deen.  I had left over cream in the fridge and while looking for a biscuit recipe this morning saw this one...they are in the oven right now!   

(my husband who is a biscuit freak, topped his with sausage gravy, took a bite and said "these are amazing"....he has never said that about other home made biscuits!!)

Easy

Serves:

10 to 12 biscuits

Ingredients

• 2 cups self-rising flour, plus more for dusting
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, and cream until the dough forms a ball. Turn the dough out onto a surface dusted with additional flour. Fold the dough in 1/2 and knead 5 to 7 times, adding just enough flour to keep dough from sticking to your hands. Gently roll out dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter coated with flour, cut dough into biscuits.

(I cut into squares so I don't have any little left over pieces)

Place on baking sheet coated with cooking spray, leaving at least 1-inch between each biscuit. Bake for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
