Herb Butter Drop Biscuits

Biscuits: Yum.  Biscuits with a herb butter: Amazing!

A food processor and simply dropping the biscuits make prep super easy.  And melding the herbs into butter is a fragrant gift.

For brunch you can add an egg dish.  For lunch – a salad.  And for dinner – well that Soul Food recipe last week is a perfect match.

And they freeze well!

Enjoy!
