Butter Swim Biscuits with Honey Whipped Brown Butter & Cowboy Butter
These Butter Swim Biscuits are baked in a pool of butter until golden brown with crispy edges and a tender center. Then they’re served with TWO over-the-top butters—a sweet honey whipped brown butter and a bold cowboy butter—for the ultimate buttery goodness moment.
