Sometimes it takes unusual ingredients to make our most memorable bites. Take these Sour Cream Biscuits for example. We never thought we would have come up with the idea to add rich and tangy sour cream to some biscuit mix, but boy, we’re glad we did. The result is a flaky, buttery, perfectly moist biscuit that’s actually super easy to make. We especially love them with some farm-fresh butter and a smother of sweet, fruity jam. Just trust us! These Sour Cream Biscuits are worth branching out a little bit for!
