Biscuits and Sausage Gravy
Biscuits and gravy is one of those foods that just reminds me of home. My dad used to make this for us on the weekends. When I first met Hubby, he had no idea what biscuits and gravy were. Crazy Northeasterner! He fell in love the first time he had my dad’s biscuits and gravy. And it’s so simple to throw together when you’re half asleep on a Saturday or Sunday morning.
I like to use the flaky buttermilk store bought biscuits. You could definitely make your own from scratch if you wanted. We also like our gravy pretty thick. Feel free to add more milk to thin out your gravy if you prefer.

I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
How I wish I knew of this recipe a few weeks ago! I didn’t have cream of tartar on hand and didn’t want to risk making snickerdoodles without out so I used a sugar cookie recipe instead… blah! But now I know for next time this exists! Great job on your snickerdoodles. They look perfect!
Sorry to hear that. These were very good. I can’t believe I’ve never made them before…
How do you do it? Where do all the cookies go? Is Carlos put’n on his winter weight? I am impressed in all the cookies you’ve made. Looking forward to what you’ll do next.
Haha Scott. I have to admit I’m a little cookie-d out. I’m making the last batch today. Most have been going to work and we’ve been eating some. I also have 3 kinds in the freezer to take to CT with us when we’re there.
hiya.. thanks so much for sharing the recipe.. the only thing i did a bit different was melt the butter before mixing with the sugar.. these cookies taste soo yummy.. fluffy on the inside and crispy on the edges!! thanks again.. happy holidays!
