This sounds hard but is not. The turning and folding process incorporates multiple layers into your biscuits, and makes them have that flaky consistency.
These can be frozen before baking. Put the balls on a cookie sheet and freeze, then transfer them to plastic bags; seal well. When you want to serve them, don't defrost, just add about 5 minutes to the baking time. I like to keep some in the freezer for unexpected company. Use within a few weeks.
