Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead lightly and then roll the dough into a circle about 3/4 of an inch thick. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter or a small glass, cut out four circles and then ball up the dough and roll out again. Cut out two more biscuits and then repeat for the remaining two biscuits.

Place the biscuits close together on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake approximately 12-15 minutes or until golden. Remove and let them cool on a wire rack for approximately 10-15 minutes.
