To prepare, simply unwrap the biscuit dough from its packaging. Separate the individual biscuits by pulling them apart along the scored lines. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet, ensuring they have a little space between them. Bake in a preheated oven according to the package directions until they are puffed up and golden brown. They are best served warm, fresh from the oven, for optimal texture and flavor.
