5. Spread out dough on floored surface and shape into a rectangle. Fold over dough and reshape 3 to 4 more times.

6. Use a biscuit cutter or circle cookie cutter to cut out biscuits. If using a cookie cutter, do not twist as it will mess up your layering. Should make 10-12 biscuits depending on thickness.
