These biscuits were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would prefer a lighter, flakier biscuit.

I followed the recipe exactly and the biscuits turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I was a bit skeptical about these biscuits because I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but I was pleasantly surprised! The sweet potato flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the other ingredients. The biscuits were also very moist and flavorful.

These sweet potato biscuits were a hit at my family's Thanksgiving dinner! They were light and fluffy, with a slightly sweet flavor that complemented the savory dishes perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again for Christmas.
