Sweet 'n Easy #2 - Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits

This tasty breakfast idea can pop up while you're pouring your coffee, and before you hit your second cup, these whole wheat biscuits will be out of the oven...voila! If you don't speak French, look it up and let me know. Try not to get cinnamon raisin glaze on the dictionary----mama won't like it.

Cinnamon Raisin Biscuits
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup white flour
4 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. cinammon
3/4 cup cold butter
1/2 to 1 cup milk
1 cup raisins

Preheat oven to 450. Cut butter into flours, baking powder, salt & cinnamon. If you have one, use the very best pastry cutter in the whole wide world. Add enough milk for the proper consistency - more for drop biscuits, less for rolled & cut. Add raisins, shape into biscuits. Bake at 450, 10 to 13 minutes.

Cinnamon Raisin Glaze
2 Tbs. soft butter
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup powdered sugar
1-2 Tbs. milk

Combine and beat until fluffy. Spread over slightly cooled biscuits.
