I really liked the creamy texture that the pumpkin added to these biscuits. Even my dad told me he liked these. I thought I was actually making progress with changing my family's mind about pumpkin until he had another one and realized that he was just starving before. O well, pumpkin just isn't for this family. I have to admit that I wasn't crazy about the taste of these either (or my embarrassing flour spots). Maybe it would have been better with the sweet potato, but I had some leftover pumpkin from the pumpkin patch cupcakes that I wanted to finish up.
Thanks to Erin of Prudence Pennywise for choosing this week's recipe! Don't forget to visit the TWD Blogroll.
teph, these pumpkin bikkies look really good, but I can't get those Amy Sedaris cuppies you made out of my mind. They're stunning!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what an 1M tip is (one of those flat ones?), but I've gotta try what you did. Do I start at the centre and work my way out?
wow, they look so flaky and the color is awesome. mmmmmmmm
ReplyDeleteSorry they werent up to par for you but they still look like the inside has a wonderfully flaky texture, and the color-gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteThose look fantastic. I love biscuits! I haven't made them in ages though, but I'm going to be making some pumpkin puree this afternoon...
ReplyDeleteOh and flour spots aren't flaws, they just make them rustic. ;)
I can't believe how well your's rose. Mine rose a bit, but not nearly that much. I'm glad, though, to finally see that someone else's were a funky yellow orange and had flour spots!
ReplyDeleteGreat variation for today TWD pick.
ReplyDeleteI used pumpkin too, but added some chocolate chips to mine. Your biscuits look so good!

ReplyDeleteThey look perfect, but it's hard for that to overcome a flavor that just doesn't hit the right notes with us!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely texture you got on these biscuits. Much lighter than mine turned out, though I did love them.
