Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 c all-purpose flour
1/4 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/3 c shortening (crisco)
2/3 c buttermilk
1/3 c raisins (optional)
1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
FROSTING
1-1/2 c confectioners' sugar
2 Tbsp butter--softened
1-1/2 tsp vanilla extract (or the real thing, which is always better!)
3 to 5 Tbsp warm water

Steps:

  • 1. In a bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients; then cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • 2. Stir in buttermilk JUST until moistened. DO NOT OVER MIX!
  • 3. Turn onto a floured surface; sprinkle with raisins and cinnamon. Knead 8 to 10 times only (cinnamon will give a marbled appearance).
  • 4. Drop batter into 12 mounds 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. (I also like to shape them into thick rounds and place them touching each other in a baking pan which results in more of that gooey goodness that everyone loves about the center cinnamon roll!) Bake at 425 degrees F for 12-16 minutes or until golden brown.
  • 5. FROSTING: Whisk the the confectioners' sugar, butter, vanilla and enough warm water to achieve desired consistency. Frost warm biscuits. Serve immediately.

When I lived in the mid-west, I use to get these biscuits as a morning breakfast on occasion....well, on more occasions than I should have.

I've found a copy cat recipe for it and I'm on cloud 9!! The person who posted this on another site said she use to work at Hardee's so this is the real-deal ! I can't wait to make these for my husband and kids!

Tips for Making the Best Frosted Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits

- Choose the right ingredients. Make sure to use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. - Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. - Chill the dough before baking. Chilling the dough will help the biscuits rise properly. - Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. A hot oven will help the biscuits to rise and brown properly. - Frost the biscuits while they are still warm. This will help the frosting to set and adhere to the biscuits.
