Angel Flake Biscuits step by step

1. Pre-heat oven to 450°F..
2. Dissolve yeast in the warm water and set aside for later use..

8. Pour out biscuit dough onto a well floured surface and pat out by hand leaving a dough that is approximately 1 inch thick..
9. Cut approximately 12 biscuits with a biscuit cutter or the edge of an upside down drinking glass..
10. Keep cutter or glass edge floured so dough doesnt stick to cutter..
11. Crowd biscuits into a "just the right size" well oiled baking pan. (I prefer a glass baking pan.).
12. Bake until biscuit tops are golden brown. Approximate baking time is 20 minutes..
13. You may keep dough stored in refrigerator for a later baking time. The cool refrigerator temperature keeps the dough from rising until you are ready to make biscuits. The dough will keep nicely in refrigerator for up to 1 week..
14. Optional: When biscuits come out of oven, cover with fresh made sausage gravy! https://cookpad.com/us/recipes/339825-sausage-gravy-for-biscuits-n-gravy.
