Servings

🌸 **Serve** your delightful biscuits with a warm cup of tea or aromatic coffee for an unbeatable experience. For a fun twist, drizzle them with a bit of raspberry jamβ€”it's a sweet surprise with every bite! πŸ˜‹

πŸ“ **Add fresh fruits** like strawberries, blueberries, or even mango slices on top of the frosting to bring a burst of freshness and color. 🌈

✨ **Get creative** and make a biscuit sandwich by spreading a layer of your favorite jam between two biscuits before frosting. The kids will love it! πŸͺ

🍹 **For a party**, arrange the biscuits on a beautiful tray, sprinkle some powdered sugar on top, and garnish with mint leaves for a sophisticated look. Your guests will be wowed! πŸ₯‚

Variations

🌱 **Gluten-Free Version**

Replace the regular flour with an equal amount of gluten-free baking flour blend. The rest stays the same, so you can still enjoy a fluffy, tasty biscuit without the gluten. 😊

🌿 **Vegan Version**

Substitute eggs with a flaxseed mixture (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons of water per egg) and use vegan cream cheese and coconut cream instead of heavy cream. The frosting will be just as rich and creamy! πŸ˜‹

Faq

  • Why didn't my biscuits rise? 😒

    Make sure your eggs are whipped enough to integrate air, which helps in rising. Also, make sure your oven is preheated properly.

  • Can I use regular sugar for the cream cheese frosting?

    Powdered sugar works best as it dissolves seamlessly, giving the frosting a smooth texture.

  • What can I use instead of almond flakes for topping?

    Try candy sprinkles, crushed nuts, or even chocolate chips for a fun variation! πŸŽ‰

  • How do I store leftover frosting?

    Keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Whip again before using.

  • Can I freeze the baked biscuits?

    Yes, you can freeze them in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw and frost them when needed.

  • What's the best way to get smooth, lump-free frosting?

    Ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This helps them blend well.
