Dear rfc:ers,
 Yesterday I decided to try out Cowboy Kents 2 ingredient biscuit recipe.
I
could not find self-rising flour so in the end it was a 4 ingredient
recipe, since I also ran out of cream.
 In the end, this is what was mixed:
 4.5 dl wheat flour
2 dl cream
1.5 dl milk
1.5 tsp of baking powder
 Obviously not as good as Cowboy Kent, but after about 20-25 minutes or
so
at 200 C, they came out and were _perfect_!
 Nice crust, and very soft and fluffy, went perfectly with some butter.
That was all that was needed.
 Today I toasted one for lunch, and it tasted almost as good. We'll see
about tomorrow.
 Highly recommended and will most definitely make again! =)

 Butter drop biscuits are stupidly simple to make. You mix up some
self-rising flour with milk and dump it in a pan filled with butter. Of
course, I'll add some sugar. You gotta have sugar.

 Looks nice! I'll have to look into this type of recipe. Does sound much
nicer than having to bother with kneading and making small buns. I'll
probably skip the sugar though... I have become too sensitive to sugar
as
I've gotten older.

 Self-rising flour is pretty magical. I've made bread with SRF, a bottle
of beer, some cheese, and jalapeno peppers. Wow - tasty. It tastes like
a yeast bread. Amazing!
 

 It is yet another way in which the US is a better country than Sweden!
The
swedes have not yet invented this, sadly.
 Did you know that apparently, Trump invented self-rising flour! I had no
idea!

Unfortunately, it was the Brits that invented self-rising flour. Well,

that's if you insist on calling selling flour with baking powder and
salt already in it an "invention."
