Cooking Tips

• Make sure the butter is cold and cut into small pieces to ensure a flaky texture.
• Do not overmix the dough, as this can result in tough biscuits.
• If you don't have a biscuit cutter, you can use a round cookie cutter or even a drinking glass to cut out the biscuits.

Storage and Serving

• These biscuits are best served warm, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the biscuits in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes, or until warmed through.
• Serve as is, or with butter and jam for a delicious breakfast or snack.
