Notes

Store your biscuits in an airtight container or large freezer bag. They'll be good for 1-2 days at room temperature or 1 week in the fridge. If you store them in the fridge, feel free to put them in the microwave for a few seconds to warm and soften them up.
These are great for freezing! They'll last 2-3 months frozen. Let them full cool down to room temperature before freezing them. You can wrap each one individually with plastic wrap, then place them in a large freezer bag to ensure they stay as fresh as possible.
