Bakers Lemon Cream Biscuits
What it is
These are sweet, crumbly biscuits with a creamy lemon-flavored filling sandwiched between two crisp cookie layers. The biscuits are typically golden brown and have a slightly textured surface. The filling provides a bright, zesty counterpoint to the buttery biscuit. They are a popular choice for a sweet treat or a light dessert.
