    Refrigerator Biscuit Donuts
    Open a can of biscuits, and with your finger poke a hole in the center and stretch it out a little to make it bigger. Heat some fat, about a half inch and place them in the fat one by one. The fat doesn't have to be hot when you do this. As you see them browning on one side, carefully flip them over with 2 forks and let them brown on the other side.

    If you let the oil get too hot they will cook too fast and the inside won't get done. Just use medium heat.

    Drain them on paper towels and dip them in cinnamon sugar or after they cool spread icing on them, you can also use a glaze icing recipe.

    Chinese Donuts
    Here's how they made those fluffy sugar coated donuts you can buy at those Chinese Restaurants for $3.00 for 10. Very simple. They're using refrigerated biscuits.

    They open a package and lay them out on a counter, and let them come to room temperature which causes them to rise. Then as people order them, they drop them in hot fat and let them brown, remove and let drain on paper towels. Then when cool enough to handle they toss then in a bag with sugar. In New Orleans these little treats are similar to the commonly called Benets which are French Donuts

    TIP: If you don't let them come to room temperature, the inside center will not get cooked.

    Pizza Pockets
    Brown some ground beef, drain, and add a bit of pizza sauce or catsup to make it stick together.

    Using 2 packages of refrigerator biscuits, roll flat 2 biscuits at a time to make 4 inch circles. Add a heaping tablespoon of ground beef mixture, add some cheese. Pick up the 4 edges and bring towards center. pinch all ends together. Lay upside down on a cookie sheet. Brown in a hot oven at 400 degrees, cool then eat. 1 pkg biscuits makes 5 pizza pockets. Clean up your mess.

    Pigs in a Blanket
    Turn on toaster oven to 400

    Open a 10 count refrigerated biscuit package. Cut 5 hot dogs in half. Cut 2 American Cheese slices in 20 pieces. Using a heavy drinking glass, roll each biscuit flat, (or use the palm of your hand.)

    Place 2 pieces of cheese in the center of each circle, and a half hot dog. Starting from the end of the dough, roll it up and pinch the ends so the melted cheese won't drip out. Sometimes I squirt a little mustard, and put chopped onions in it.

    Lay them on your toaster oven pan, slightly separated with the pinched side down.. Cook at 400 for about 10 min or until browned. Clean up the counter. Also see Bisquick Pigs in a Blanket
