FAQs

1. Can I use homemade biscuit dough instead of refrigerated?
Yes, you can use homemade biscuit dough if you prefer. Just make sure the dough is flaky and not too soft.

2. How do I know when the biscuits are done?
The biscuits are done when they are golden brown on top. You can also check by inserting a toothpick in one; it should come out clean.
