Join February's Challenge Butter Swim Biscuits There are many, many types of biscuits in the world: flaky, mile-high, buttery, dropped, rolled. I think they're all delicious. The one we're focusing on this month is the butter swim variety. These biscuits are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The dough comes together super quick, and then "swims" in a pool of butter as it bakes. Bake with us this month, and post your biscuit photo in the Facebook group or on Instagram using the hashtag #bakeable. Happy biscuit baking! —Emily, Bakeable editor GET RECIPE
