1 egg
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons sugar
l/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon soy flour
1 tablespoon wheat germ
1 tablespoon instant nonfat dry milk
About 1 cup whole-wheat flour
Preheat the oven to 350F. Use ungreased cookie sheets. Put the egg in a large mixing bowl and beat well. Add the honey and sugar and blend. Add the salt, soy flour, wheat germ, dry milk, and whole wheat flour and mix thoroughly. Dust a working surface and your rolling pin with whole-wheat flour, and have some extra handy. Roll the dough into a rectangle about 9 by 12-inches, and about l/4 inch
thick. Sprinkle the dough with a little whole-wheat flour if it
is sticky, lifting and moving the dough as you are rolling it out
so it won't stick to the surface. Trim the edges neatly and cut
the dough into strips 1 inch wide by 2 inches long. Place the
biscuits on the cookie sheets about 1/2 inch apart. Bake for 7
minutes or until colored on the bottom. Turn them over, using a spatula, and continue to bake for about 4 more minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on racks. Store in an airtight container or wrap well and freeze. (makes about forty five 1 x 2 1/2-inch biscuits

What char__c's.a.good.cooke...? I've never heard of putting yeast in a biscuit recipe! It kind of obviates the name ';quick bread';, which is what biscuits aresupposed to be!
I have tried many recipes for biscuits, trying to duplicate the fluffy, flaky, tart, tangy, sweet, towers of bready goodness from my youth. The recipe that comes closest (for me) is the one on the back of the Gold Medal Self-Rising Flour bag.
2-1/2 cups self-rising flour
2 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup buttermilk
Sift dry ingredients together, cut in shortening, add buttermilk (I always add a little more, maybe 2 or 3 tablespoons: I like the results of a wetter dough). Mix lightly, turn out and fold over 5 or 6 times, pat out and cut.
Recently I accidentally discovered that if I have time to chill the flour/shortening mixture for about half an hour BEFORE adding the buttermilk, the biscuits are much softer and fluffier.
Buttermilk Biscuits
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup buttermilk
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put dry ingredients into food processor
bowl, pulse to combine. Add shortening, pulse 3-4 times until mixture
resembles course crumbs.
Add buttermilk, pulse just until dough combines. Put on lightly floured
board, knead 3-4 times just until smooth.
Pat out 3/4 inch thick, cut with 2 1/2 inch cutter. Gently push together
scraps, cut remainder of biscuits. Transfer biscuits to baking sheet,
bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden.

Would I be able to substitue baking powder for baking soda in a dog biscuit recipe?
I tried to look for some baking soda, but alas, no such luck. So since its just for dog biscuits would it be possible to use powder instead?
thanks a bunchWould I be able to substitue baking powder for baking soda in a dog biscuit recipe?
No, they serve 2 different purposes. You must use baking soda. You can find it anywhere, I don't know why you had problems. Drug store, grocery store, gas station, etc.Would I be able to substitue baking powder for baking soda in a dog biscuit recipe?
I can honestly say I would never have thought of making biscuits for the dog I always buy them.He likes human biscuits too dunked in tea.
Just leave it out, I guess your dog won't mind this one time.
They may not rise as much but will taste the same.
No, they are not the same thing. Baking soda is available everywhere. Literally. Look for Arm %26amp; Hammer brand in the orange-yellow box.
the last time i bot biscuits for my dog, they reeked of baking soda(im extra sensitive to t smell coz i find it unpleasant). so i guess thts the leavening agent of choice whn it comes to making dog biscuits. and i remember my granny telling me tht baking soda is a tad better than t powder(she considered baking powder to b unfriendly to t stomach, bt didnt tell me what she based her opinion on).so i guess u wer bettr off using t soda. but it does stink. sorry ;)

Why is it important to put vinegar in a buttermilk biscuit recipe?
1/8 teasponWhy is it important to put vinegar in a buttermilk biscuit recipe?
I have never heard of that, but, it sounds like a very good idea and I am going to try that. I believe that it will boost that buttermilk flavor. Thanks!Why is it important to put vinegar in a buttermilk biscuit recipe?
Many buttermilk biscuit recipes don't call for vinegar. However, if you want to make something that calls for buttermilk but you only have regular, the instructions will often say to add vinegar to the regular milk as a substitution (often around 1 tablespoon vinegar to a cup of milk). Maybe adding a little extra vinegar enhances the buttermilk flavor.
The acid works with the baking soda as a leavening. Does the recipe call for soda only or baking powder too? Sounds like an old recipe that is trying to up the acid to make the soda rise.
I've never heard of anybody adding vinegar to buttermilk biscuits. Seems really odd. I've got two different recipes in my kitchen and neither of them calls for vinegar.
i make my own biscuits and put a little baking powder in my mix, even though i use self rising flour, my son loves them

Great cookie/biscuit recipe to make with kids?
I need something simple and fast and delicious. Can anyone help?Great cookie/biscuit recipe to make with kids?
The world's BEST cookie to make with kids uses no utinsels, works like playdough, and tastes like heaven. They're called Aggression Cookies, and they're used often in preschools. You can add anything you want to the recipe...chocolate or carob chips, peanuts or other nuts, raisins, etc.
Aggression Cookies
A thin, crispy, buttery cookie that is a fun, easy cookie to make and is perfect for making with children as you mash and squish and form (thus the name aggression cookies). Perfect! Also good with raisins/currants.
Ingredients:

1/2 Tablespoon baking soda
1-1/2 cups margarine or butter, softened
1-1/2 cups flour
3 cups oatmeal
Butter the bottom of a small glass and dip it into granulated sugar and mash the cookie flat, just a little. You only have to butter the glass once or twice but be sure and dip in sugar for each cookie. (I don't do this...I drop mine in globs onto the cookie sheet so that they're thick, soft, and gooey...mmmm).
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Cool a few minutes then remove from pan to cooling rack.Great cookie/biscuit recipe to make with kids?

It's more of a candy than a cookie, but once when I was babysitting we made this, and the kids LOVED it!
Fried Egg Candy
1 package (15 ounces) pretzel sticks
1 package (12 ounces) vanilla or white chips
48 yellow M%26amp;M's
Place pretzel sticks on waxed paper in groups of two, leaving a small space between each. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat vanilla chips at 70% power until melted; stir until smooth. Drop by tablespoonfuls over each pair of pretzel sticks. For ';yolks';, place one or two M%26amp;M's in the center of each ';egg';. Yield: about 3-1/2 dozen.
The pretzels are the little sticks of bacon and then you make a candy ';egg';! They're really cute and easy for kids to help with! I got the idea from a magazine called Quick Cooking about 5 years ago!

Toss with half of the remaining cookie crumbs and enough pudding to make the mixture moist but not soggy. Place liner in litter box and pour in mixture.
Unwrap 3 Tootsie Rolls and heat in a microwave until soft and pliable. Shape the blunt ends into slightly curved points. Repeat with three more rolls. Bury the rolls decoratively in the cake mixture. Sprinkle remaining white cookie crumbs over the mixture, then scatter green crumbs lightly over top.
Heat 5 more Tootsie Rolls until almost melted. Scrape them on top of the cake and sprinkle with crumbs from the litter box. Heat the remaining Tootsie Roll until pliable and hang it over the edge of the box.
Place box on a sheet of newspaper and serve with scooper. Enjoy!
