Cheese-biscuit recipe handed down

I marvel at the way great recipes are passed from generation to generation. Some of my favorite recipes are the ones my grandmother and my mom shared with me years ago. One of my absolute favorites is my mom's Peanut Butter Cookies, which is on Kitchenscoop.com for all to enjoy.

Today's recipe is just that sort of recipe, and it comes from my girlfriend Lane's mom, Mona Ellis. I call them Mona's Incredible Cheese Biscuits. At my church, where we all attend, they are known through every generation. If we're hosting a brunch or morning snacks between services, you can hear the murmurs that Mona brought her biscuits before the last amen is spoken. Her platters are inevitably the first to empty; they really are that good.

So in celebration of moms, young and old, here is another mother-to-daughter recipe, Mona's Incredible Cheese Biscuits. You'll want to grab the scissors for this one. It will be one of those recipes you want to pass down from generation to generation.
