These biscuits taste buttery and are simple to make. Cut them into jack-o'-lantern shapes for autumn but different shapes for other seasons. They are especially delicious when eaten warm! —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Yield 13 biscuits

Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup cold butter, cubed
  • 1 can (15-3/4 ounces) sweet potatoes, drained and mashed
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half cream

Directions

  2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead 8-10 times. Pat or roll to 1/2-in. thickness; cut with a floured 2-in. pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter. Place 2 in. apart on lightly greased baking sheets.
  3. Bake at 425° for 16-20 minutes or until edges are browned. Remove from pans to wire racks. Serve warm.
