Cinnamon Biscuits

Cinnamon Biscuits
~
Mix together ½ cup of softened butter and 2 cups of self rising flour (make your own self rising flour by adding 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder and a ½ teaspoon of salt to 1 cup All-Purpose Flour.)
Stir in 3/4 cup of buttermilk (make your own buttermilk by adding 1 Tablespoon of lemon juice to 1 cup of whole milk. Stir and let sit for 15 minutes)
Do not over-stir. Scrape out onto floured surface, sprinkle with flour, and lightly pat down.
On top of dough sprinkle: 3/4 cup brown sugar, ½ cup raisins (I used golden raisins), ½ cup chopped pecans, 2 Tablespoons of cinnamon.
Fold dough over 4 (or so) times. Don’t over-fold. Pat down lightly and use a cup to cut out your biscuits.
Bake at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together 2/3 cup melted butter, 1 to 1 ½ cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and 1/4 cup cream. Pour over hot biscuits. Yum!
