Step-by-Step Instructions

  6. Cut the dough into rounds or squares and arrange them in the prepared pan.

  8. Brush the tops with melted butter and bake for an additional 7 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, milk, and lemon zest until smooth to prepare the glaze.
  10. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the warm biscuits after they cool for about 5 minutes.
