Tip

Parmesan Pointers

When a recipe calls for shredded Parmesan cheese, use the cheese found in bags in the grocery store dairy section. Shredded Parmesan is often used in salads or soups where the shreds make a pretty garnish. If grated Parmesan is called for, use the finely grated cheese sold in containers with shaker/pourer tops. This type works well in lasagna and casseroles. (You can substitute either shredded or grated Parmesan in equal proportions in your favorite recipes.) If you decide to buy a chunk of Parmesan cheese and grate your own, be sure to use the finest section on your grating tool. You can also use a blender or food processor. Simply cut the cheese into 1-inch cubes and process 1 cup of cubes at a time on high until finely grated.

Great recipe! So easy, and they were a hit at dinner. I replaced the canola oil with olive oil (I might try melted butter next time), used two cans of Grands Home Style biscuits, and baked the biscuits at 375F for about 9 minutes. I'll be making these often!

This is a great recipe. I served them last night and many wanted the recipe. I baked them a few hours early and heated up in the oven before serving. You must make them!

I love this recipe but I don't cut the biscuits at all. The cheap refrigerater biscuits are kind of small any way and I use only 2 cans and re-coat them a 2nd time. I don't even brush them--I dunk the biscuits whole into the oil mix. We love them very much.
