Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 475°F (reduce to 450°F for dark baking sheets) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Fold the dough in half multiple times, then roll out again to the same thickness.
- Cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for approximately 13-15 minutes until golden brown around the edges.
