I think I may add the butter mixture as each layer is placed next time 🙂
Kristin
Great idea! That would ensure each bite is coated entirely, which of course, is even better, haha!!
Bernie Young
wonder if I could just use one can of biscuits and put it in a smaller plate, that is to much for 2 people
Kristin
Sure! You could put this in a loaf pan, even a mini loaf pan!!

Add the cheese then put it under the broiler for a couple mins to make a nice crispy bread.
Kristin
Yum!! Great suggestion, I will have to try that next time!!
