Those biscuits from KFC are so good especially drizzled with some honey. Going to KFC every time we have a craving is not in our budget so through trial and error I learned how to make these Copycat KFC biscuits that tastes just like the real thing. 

The best thing about making them at home is that you can have them whenever you want and satisfy the entire family’s craving. My family likes to honey on them the best but you can always put jam, gravy or even just plain butter. 

If you want, you can make these ahead of time and freeze them. Just take them out the night before and put in the fridge to thaw out. We like to do this and make biscuits and gravy for breakfast.
