Butter Dip Biscuits are featherlight drop-n-bake biscuits with a butter drenched bottom. This is an amazing butter dipped biscuit recipe !
Fluffy light, slightly crispy and butter drenched bottom ! Amazing biscuit recipe, which will become a regular on our menu.
Right, so I found this recipe on The Better Baker’s site a while back and wanted to make it ever since. Finally, I got to this (and why did I wait to make these???) and we enjoyed the biscuits tremendously.
I made a small change (because I’m real lazy!). Decided not to pour the dough into the baking dish, level the dough or cut it whilst still unbaked.
I could feel the dough was very sticky and my short fuse is not a friend with sticky dishes needed to be level and cut.
I simply took large spoonfuls and dropped them into the dish with the melted Butter. Came out just fine ! And that is the way I have made it ever since.

These look super good! I have a weakness for bread! I love your story about your blog. My blog is still kind of a "baby." I work very hard with it and I hope it will eventually pay off!

I love this recipe, Linda. I have a similar one called "Butter Dips" that is a cross between a biscuit and bread sticks. And oh so buttery. I'm glad you decided to experiment with drop biscuits and make life easier for the rest of us. Ha!

I can never make biscuits...they always turn out like rocks. But..I keep trying and I'll try yours! Is that an 8" square pan? In America we are on the cutting edge of everything you know....except metrics!!! LOL!
