  7. Pat the dough into a 1-inch thick rectangle.
  8. Cut the dough into squares or use a round biscuit cutter to cut out biscuits.
  9. Place the biscuits onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
  11. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and garlic powder. Brush the tops of the hot biscuits with the garlic butter mixture.
  12. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top, if desired.
  13. Serve warm and enjoy!
