@@snickerson3558 You are so welcome! It’s a really easy cake to make and it’s moist and delicious. Let me know if you make.
Yum!!
A couple serrano peppers with no rib- or jalapenos with no seeds/ribs adds good heat. Same ingredients for Mango salsa- lets party!
Sounds great!
I’ll have to make Mango Salsa soon!
Lucy wants a bite!
Waste not, want not. These look delicious and simple to make.
Thank you, they are so easy. I hope you will try them.
I prefer s/r flour than you cut a step out!
Thank you for the suggestion
Try adding 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg to your gravy. It is soooo good.
Thanks for the tip! I will try that!
This looks so amazing! Going to try it when my Memphian daughter in law comes!
Awesome! Hope you enjoy it!

Nice Recipe. Looks delicious 😋
Thank you, try it with grilled chicken. It is so good! It goes from being a side dish to an entree.
@@TakeItUpaNotchAnn definitely will try, thanks 🤗
Love the celery seed hack. I don't like celery but will be trying that! ❤
Thank you, a few dashes adds a lot of flavor.
So yummy!!
Thank you 😋
Yum!! Will be making this!
It’s so easy! I hope you like it.😊
I know your channel intention is geared toward young people but I’m tempted to try my hand at your sausage gravy even at my age (seven decades on this rock), it looks delicious❗️ From Kentucky originally - summers spent on g-parent’s farm in Adair County - but Texan by adoption, low these many years later. Keep up the great food posts. If you ever decide to get fancy, maybe do a video on Kentucky Hot Brown (Brown Hotel, Louisville), or Bourbon Balls (Rebecca Ruth, Frankfort) or red-eye gravy. 👈
Thank you, for the compliments and great idea regarding the Ky Hot Brown. I had a bourbon ball recipe request earlier today, so I will definitely put that on my list. I hope you try the sausage gravy, its really easy and delicious. Let me know how it turns out.😄
@@TakeItUpaNotchAnn Here’s my little sister’s BB recipe. You didn’t ask for it but she’s a great cook too (Jassamine County): Bourbon Balls (I double the recipe) 1 lb powdered sugar 3-4 TBLS softened butter 1/3 cup bourbon 1/2 cup chopped pecans (soak pecans in bourbon for an hour) Combine sugar and butter. Add soaked pecans. Mix well and roll into balls. Chill (freezer for a bit) In a double boiler melt 8 oz of chocolate chips, 2-3 squares unsweetened chocolate, and about 1/8 cup Paraffin wax shavings. Dip the balls in chocolate, place on wax paper & chill.
@@larrysfarris Thank you so much!!! This is similar to the recipe that I have. I will deffinetely be making these soon. I have to make over 200 for my nieces wedding this fall. Thank you for sharing. :)
Thank you for an amazing recipe 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Can i use a cookie sheet? Do i butter or grease the tray?
Thank you for the compliment! I would not recommend a cookie sheet but would suggest a cake pan or brownie pan, maybe a 9x9 glass dish. You want something that has a deep enough side to it to support the biscuits as they rise in the baking process. I hope this helps! Send me a picture when you bake them. :)
@@TakeItUpaNotchAnn thank you for your prompt reply, do i grease the brownie pan?
I love your demeanor. The way you speak and tone of voice is instantly calming. So welcoming! Thank you for making these great videos! God bless!
Thank you so much for the sweet compliment. I'm trying be as helpful as possible for people who do not know how to make these recipes. I hope you enjoy the recipe,
Looks good but she s too nervous😮
Thank you for your feedback.
Whats already in the bowl ????????????
@@budoquark I’m sorry, I should have explained that one cup of flour was already in the bowl.
@@TakeItUpaNotchAnnyou did, you said, I had one cup on there already. Listen up Folks! ❤
This will definitely help me step up my sausage gravy recipe
Yes, they will! Hope you like it.
Cherry lime sounds delicious!
This is fabulous on a hot day! Fast & Easy!
Perfect for these hot summer days!
Thank you, great for a cookout, fast and easy.
This cake looks amazing! Thanks for the recipe 😋
Thank you! It’s so easy to make and great on a hot day.😁
Did you oil or do any protection when putting the biscuits into the cast-iron skillet so they don’t stick?
Hello, good question. No, I did not have to add any oil to the skillet since it's a well seasoned skillet. If you are going to purchase one, look for a seasoned one. You can find them at Walmart or any Cracker Barrel Restaurant. The brand that I love is Lodge Cast Iron out of Chattanooga, TN.
Good ideas
Thank you! This is the easiest biscuit recipe.
Hola aqui en españa donde podemos encontrar el suwri de leche se puede sustiruir por akgo parecido❤
@@victoriafernandez4973 Thank you!
These will be a great snack for while I’m smoking meats this summer!

What a great idea to give as a gift! Such a sweet idea!!
I think so too!
Lovely cookies! definitely going to try! Dropping a like for you 👍👍
