Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and pat it into a rectangle about 10 x 8 inches and 1/4 inch thick, with the long edge facing you.
6
Fold the dough into thirds like a letter.

Turn the folded dough 90 degrees so the short side is facing you.

Roll it out again into a 10 x 8-inch rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.

Repeat the folding, turning, and rolling process two more times. On the final roll, gently shape the dough into a thicker 10 x 5-inch rectangle, about 3/4 inch thick.

Using a floured inch round cutter, cut out 8 to 12 biscuits, re-rolling scraps if desired to cut more biscuits.
