I Love them with honey.

Thanks Bushman, that's just the one I was looking for. If you've never tried these biscuits...I highly recommend them

Angel Biscuits
INGREDIENTS:
1 package active dry yeast (about .25 ounce)
1/4 cup warm water, about 110° F.
2 cups warmed buttermilk, about 110° F.
5 to 5 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon salt
3/4 cup chilled shortening
4 tablespoons chilled butter
melted butter
PREPARATION:
Dissolve the yeast in the 1/4 cup of warm water. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder,
baking soda, and salt.
Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal,
with some small pea-size pieces of fat.
Stir in yeast mixture and buttermilk, blending well.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and
knead with floured hands just a few turns.
Pat into a round about 1/2-inch thick.
Cut with 2- to 2 1/2-inch biscuit cutters.
Place cut out biscuits on a lightly greased baking sheet.
Cover with a dish cloth and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
Bake at 400° for about 15 to 20 minutes.
Brush tops with the melted butter while still hot.
Makes about 2 to 3 dozen angel biscuits, depending on size.

I have been looking for my recipe for Angel Biscuits and can't find it. Wonder if someone has one? I remember my recipe called for buttermilk and of course yeast. They are so good and the dough can be refridgerated and used as needed. Thanks to anyone that has this recipe.
