Hardy's Bisquits

My first love was cooking. That was before I got into making wonderful soy candles and soy based natural bath and body products. I spend most of my time creating new ideas for our lotions, soaps and scrubs. But occasionly I go back to my favorite recipe's and indulge in my passion for creating comfort food, one of which I am going to share with you today. Have you ever pulled into a Hardy's Drive Thru and could not wait for the car in front of you to move on so you could get that mouth watering Bacon egg and cheese bisquit? Well I have, which made me go on the quest to find the recipe. My family has enjoyed this for years and now I am ready to share it with you. I know we are all very busy but I make them on a Saturday or Sunday and freeze them until ready to use.

5 cups self rising flour
1 cup crisco
2 pkgs yeast
1/4 cup warm water
2tsp sugar
1tsp soda
2 cups buttermilk

Mix together flour, sugar and soda. Dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside. Add 1 cup crisco to flour mixture and mix well. Add buttermilk and then yeast mixture. Stir well and refrigerate overnight. Bake at 400.

You will never have to wait in a drive thru again because they are wonderful to freeze and warm in the microwave.
