4) Place the biscuits in a greased iron frying pan. Gently press down top of biscuits. Brush the biscuits with half the melted butter.
5) Bake for 14 mins or until golden brown.
6) Brush the hot biscuits with the remaining butter. Split the biscuits in half and ladle milk gravy over the hot biscuits and serve.
