When I lived in the mid-west, I use to get these biscuits as a morning breakfast on occasion. well, on more occasions than I should have. I loved the warm tender biscuits with cinnamon swirlled in it and the sweet icing melting down. Having moved to California 12 years ago, I have really missed these as there are no Hardee's out here. I've found a copy cat recipe for it and I'm on cloud 9. I can't wait to make these for my husband and kids.
