Notes
This recipe is so easy you can make and bake a batch in less than 30 minutes. But if you want to make the dough and freeze it for later you can.Make the dough as instructed. Drop the dough on a cookie sheet lined with parchment. Place the cookie sheet in the freezer for 30 minutes or until the dough is frozen. Transfer the frozen dough to a freezer-safe bag or container. The dough will keep this way for up to three months.When you are ready to bake your biscuits, thaw them at room temperature then bake them as instructed in the recipe. You may need to add a few minutes to the baking time if the dough is very cold when you put it in the oven.They will still be good after a day or two if you store them at room temperature. Or, you can keep them in the refrigerator for up to a week. But, honestly? They are best warm from the oven. They're so good you probably won't have any leftovers to store!
