No Bisquick here! This biscuit recipe calls for cake yeast and lard. I don't buy lard often, but now I know what to do with the leftovers next time I make
Grandma's Gingerbread Cookies. Unfortunately, this recipe doesn't say how long to let the biscuits rise, what temperature to bake them at, or how long. I also assume they need to be kneaded, but I can't find a recipe that's similar enough to compare these to, and I don't remember Grandma making anything other than the dinner rolls you buy as a large tray in the bread aisle.
