Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole Biscuits
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. Prepare or heat the biscuits: If using store-bought biscuits, warm them according to the package instructions. For homemade biscuits, prepare them in advance and keep them warm.
2. In a small saucepan, combine the whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar dissolves and the milk is warmed through. Do not let the milk come to a boil.
4. Split the warm biscuits in half and place two biscuits (or more if you prefer) into individual serving bowls.
5. Pour the sweetened warm milk evenly over the biscuits in each bowl, allowing the biscuits to soak in the milk.
6. Let the biscuits rest for 1-2 minutes to fully absorb the milk. Sprinkle a little extra cinnamon on top if desired.
7. Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy the comforting goodness of this traditional soakie dish.
