Schnitzel With Noodles

I am a biscuit snob.

The only time I ever had biscuits from a can growing up was when we used them to make little mini pizzas (which I did a few weeks ago... caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and a blend of Italian cheeses... yum!).  My mom always make her biscuits from scratch and, even though I'm a poor college students who's hungry ALL THE TIME, there's no going to canned biscuits now.

These are cloud biscuits, and the name doesn't lie!  They're soft and fluffy and delightful, especially when they're still warm from the oven!

So make the change!  Give up those grayish, tough biscuits from the refrigerator aisle of the local grocer and make the switch to homemade.  They're easy to make and completely worth it!
