Drop Biscuits with BACON and Cheese

Yes, you read the title correctly. I am posting a BACON recipe.  Josh loves bacon almost as much as he loves me:) Last week, he worked on our kitchen all day long and I thought it would be nice to surprise him with a batch of bacon cheddar biscuits for dinner.

When Josh walked in the door, the smell of bacon put a huge grin on his face. He was excited bacon was included in the dinner plans. When I pulled the tray of homemade biscuits out of the oven he ran over and asked if there was bacon in the cheddar biscuits. He looked closer and shouted, YES! I was glad I made him happy before he even tasted these drop biscuits. He ended up eating five of these homemade drop biscuits with his soup that night. They were definitely a hit.

  4. Just made these for my family last night to go with our ham & potato chowder. They were amazing!!! Thanks for another great recipe Maria! 🙂

  5. These will be such a huge hit in my house, I can’t even begin to tell you! I think I’ll make them this weekend. Hope you are well! I’ve been a bad visitor lately, but you guys continue to be one of my first stops whenever I am looking for the perfect recipe – you never let me down! 🙂

  6. I tried these last night and they turned out very very good. The biscuits baked up light and fluffy and were very flavorful. I actually used one this morning to make a breakfast sandwich with some scrambled eggs and bacon. Next time I might try a blend of cheeses and see how that works.

    Thank you for such a good recipe!
