Funky Biscuit Flowers

I just saw that I'm the featured blogger of the day on The Secret is in the Sauce. I looooooove SITS, how cool is that??!!

We had a little Tinkerbell Movie Night yesterday and I needed a quick, girly snack, so here's what I came up with. These are easy, cheap, and sparkly...woo hoo!:)
How great would these look with red & green sugar garnishing a Holiday plate!? I'll definitely do them during Christmas.

Funky Biscuit Flowers
makes 10
Ingredients:
1 can refrigerator biscuits
colored sugar

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Seperate biscuits and cut 5 triangular notches in each to resemble a flower (see quick video tutorial--excuse the messy kitchen, we were in full party mode!). Take two of the triangles you just cut out and roll into a ball.

Coat one side of the "flower" in colored sugar and place on greased baking sheet. Roll the ball in another color sugar and place on top of the flower. Repeat with remaining biscuits. Bake at 400 for 7-9 minutes and serve.
We also made edible Tinkerbell Houses, I'll post instructions tomorrow! Happy Friday!
