Very simple and easy recipe. The biscuits tasted delicious and kids especially loved then! - 08 Mar 2014
Hannah. .. tried to reply to your question with no luck so I hope you see this! The best way I've found to store is freezing in a log at dough stage prior to cooking. Partly thaw & slice to cook as needed. If you want variation, press onto top before baking eg nuts, chocolate etc. I had this recipe years ago & absolutely loved it. I then lost it and have been searching for years. So so happy to have finally found it to share with my grandchildren 😊 - 02 Jul 2015
