Agree!

Thanks, Ophelia. Looks like I now have an even better reason to turn
on my oven (already on!) and warm this chilly abode. I have all the
'ingrediments' (Brit slang) fer them 'biscuits' (another Brit term),
so am gonna make 'em.

Ummm... Ophelia. What 'exactly' is "cake flour"? Is it like 'pastry'
flour? I have some organic whole wheat pastry flour. Will that do?

Cake flour is super fine sifted white flour.

http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-cake-flour.htm

Texture is the main thing that sets cake flour apart from other
varieties. It is often milled so fine that it is actually soft to the
touch, much like baby powder or powdered sugar. Most of the time, it is
pure white as well, thanks to the intensive bleaching process it goes
through as it is made.

Cake flour is often more expensive than other, more standard types of
flour and is usually sold in smaller quantities. Though many different
brands produce it around the world, there is usually little difference
between true cake flours. The most important characteristic is the fine
grind, which allows baked goods to set up differently than they would
with a thicker product.

Same question: WTF is "regular white flour"? Do you mean all-purpose
(AP) flour?

That recipe is a US one so I don't know. I just our regular flour.

Cheri would be the best person to ask because it was her recipe.

I make them often because dh likes them a lot and they are easy to do on
short notice, but I just got the recipe off the net a few years ago.
