Notes: This was one of Mom's biscuit recipes. She does not state in her recipe but this dough, if kept in the refrigerator, would keep for probably one week. These are a tasty alternative to regular biscuits--the yeast gives a them a little different taste and texture. The amounts listed in the () are for halving the recipe. Notice the amount of yeast stays the same.
