Add starter to dry ingredients and mix until dough pulls away from sides of bowl. Transfer to a lightly floured surface and roll until 1/2 inch thick. Using a 3 inch circle cutter or floured glass cut out biscuits and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Brush top of biscuits with melted butter. Cover and let rise 30 minutes.

Thanks for the recipes with the starter! It's nice to know there is something else to make out there besides the standard bread. Nothing against the bread; we love it, but I've made it so much it's not so exciting anymore. I will have to try these for a change. http://www.cookinglight.com/bbs/smile.gif
