Shape the Biscuits

Simmer
Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes, or until the mixture thickens to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Cool the Jam
Remove from heat and let the jam cool before transferring it to a jar. It will thicken more as it cools.
Butter Directions

Soften the Butter
Let the unsalted butter sit at room temperature until softened. This will make it easier to spread on the biscuits.
