Notes: My mother taught me to make these biscuits. Her biscuits are still better than mine but I'm getting there! We can tell even before they're cooked if they're going to be good. The dough is light and feels like baby's bottom. And about the name...originally I called them Pitty Pat's after my Moma. On a recent visit, she told me I should call them Pat Pat's Biscuits because when I was learning to talk that's what I called her. How could I resist?
