Jello and Biscuits

Need a break for writing discussions, blog posts, tweeting, etc?  Check out:  http://lemonlorange.com/ for some campy Jello related fun; sort of Julie & Julia but with a 1968 Jello recipe book.

The web site is somewhat MLIS 7505 related in that it is a blog/website created with WordPress.  Katrina Moore, aka Lemon L'Orange, is a friend of my sons - they went to college together and were house-mates, with several others (I don't want to know) in Seattle, WA.  Kat, as she is known, has a bachelor degree in English, a certificate from Le Cordon Bleu of Seattle, and is now studying 'food writing' at NYU.  While in Seattle, Kat worked at Theo Chocolates (what a great job) and did some acting.

Kat's mom, Belinda, worked for White Lily flour for several years creating recipes, modeling food (yes, Virginia, they do model food), and presenting cooking demonstrations.  Belinda gave us her favorite biscuit recipe several years ago.  The recipe is simple and the biscuits are wonder!  Enjoy during a study break.
  
My Favorite Biscuits by Belinda Moore

Ingredients:
  • 1 3/4 cups White Lily (of course) self rising flour;
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream;

Directions:

Mix ingredients together, but not too much.  On a floured section of wax paper fold dough a couple times, pat or roll out until about 1/2" thickness, cut biscuits out, place on ungreased baking sheet or stone, brush with melted butter (optional), and bake at 500 degrees for 7-9 minutes.

Serves 5 - 6
