To prepare, you will typically combine the contents of the package with a liquid, such as milk or water, and a fat, like butter or shortening. Mix the ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix, which can result in tough biscuits. Spoon the dough onto a baking sheet or into a biscuit cutter. Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through. The exact liquid and fat amounts may vary slightly depending on the specific product instructions, so always refer to the package for best results.
