I've been cleaning out some boxes from my move (6 months ago) and came across a slip of paper with the following recipe on it.
"On Saturday, Melanie, David and I invented Sprightly Biscuits. Let's see if I can reproduce the recipe here.
We started with Bisquick; however much is needed for a small batch of plain biscuits, but the prescribed amount of milk.
I pulsed the following in a food processor:
1/2 cup toasted walnuts
8 pitted dates
1/4 cup craisins
David, with a delightful grin on his face, added cinnamon, ground clove, and small amount of brown sugar. This may have been all.
The Sprightly Biscuits were baked for however long, but with 2 minutes to go, David took them out, sprinkled them with sugar, and baked them for the remaining 2 minutes.
Delicious. Perhaps in the future, it'll be made with flour, since Bisquick has such a distinct taste. Further experimentation, here we come!"
This whole recipe was thrown together in about half an hour before a dinner party that my sister had to attend. She was going to buy something at the store for the potluck, but David and I shamed her into taking something homemade. Thus, Sprightly Biscuits.
