REPIN this Bacon And Cheese Biscuits recipe!
Wanted to love but very bland. Also a can of biscuits made 24 and I still had a biscuit left. Not sure how it would only make 16 in mini muffin tin.
To be fair, I used cooked bacon and smoked Gouda and cheddar.
Hi Tara, we used a can of 8 biscuits and cut each in half which made 16 bacon and cheese biscuits. Thank you for trying this recipe!
