3 cups milk

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Let stand 10 minutes. In a 2 quart container glass, plastic or ceramic container, combine 1 cup flour and 1 cup sugar.

Tips:

Using a stand mixer with a dough hook can make mixing the ingredients easier.
If you don't have a stand mixer, you can mix the ingredients by hand. Just be sure to mix until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Be sure to let the dough rise in a warm place. This will help the dough to double in size.
Don't overwork the dough. Otherwise, the biscuits will be tough.
When cutting out the biscuits, be sure to use a sharp knife. This will help to prevent the biscuits from sticking to the knife.
Bake the biscuits in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the biscuits are cooked evenly.

Amish Friendship Sourdough Style Biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for any occasion, and they are sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a tasty treat, give this recipe a try!
