More than once I've admitted here to not being a baker but after
following the America's Test Kitchen recipe for 'Dream Biscuits'
I'm officially a biscuit maker!! The recipe was easy peasy to
follow and the results were outstanding!
Their recipe used plain flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt,
and a bit of sugar. I used self-rising flour and a tiny bit of sugar;
the sugar is to help with browning but left NO taste. Their
instructions said to use a 1/3 measuring cup sprayed with cooking
spray to scoop and drop the biscuits on a baking sheet. Next time
I'll use a 1/4 measuring cup as the biscuits do spread a bit and
turned into cathead biscuits. Nothing wrong with cathead biscuits
but they're a bit too large for me.
The recipe made 9 biscuits and the remaining ones are in the
freezer and will be transferred to a Ziplock bag for later baking.

Real bakers scoop batter with one hand and squeeze it onto a pan. Then
there's only one hand to wash. I measured thousands of
bisquits/muffins/pancakes that way, and it's very fast. The best
measuring tools you have are at the ends of your arms. Real cooks
don't use measuring cups/spoons.

I'd fire them all immediately, no hair nets, can't enter my kitchen
without a snood.

Not in the least doughy but of course you know this because you've made
these same biscuits. ← Notice the correct spelling of this baked bread.

anything like biscuits. Random quickbread.
These are more work, but yield a superior result:

Tender isn't everything. Flaky is important, too.

the picture shows that dough to simply be swimming in butter. I'd rather wait
until they're cooked, split open, and then slather them with butta.

delicious it was a toss up whether to use them for doorstops or practice
skipping stones across a pond. My fault, I just couldn't seem to leave that
dough alone when making my pucks.

They also added their special creams to the gravy. Yoose probably
