Here is where you have choices.
You can just spoon them in a pan in big lumps and bake them.
Drop them in a muffin pan or what ever.
Here is what I like to do sometimes and it is really easy.

First you will need to put some bench flour down so you can work with the dough.
This is why I suggested to make the dough wet and sticky.
The dough will take on the dry flour and be about right.
If the dough is already dry then it can and will become a rock.

When you spread the flour out on the bench just leave some on your hands so the wet sticky dough doesn't stick.
Now is also the time to preheat the oven from 425 to 450.
I like mine at around 425.
Here we go.

Cut the dough in half and roll out two on the bench as depicted.
About 1/2 inch thick or so.

Now lay one on top of the other like so.

Fold in half and roll back out to original size.

Now that is is rolled back out use a cutter to make evenly spaced biscuits.
Mine is about 2 1/2 inches across your choice.
You will see there are only five biscuits in the next pictuer you will see six.
The remainder of the dough from cutting out the first five is used to make the last biscuit.
Do not over work the dough.
