• Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Gently knead 4-6 times.
• Press dough to 1-inch thickness.
• Using a round biscuit cutter dipped in flour, cut out biscuits and arrange in the cast iron skillet. Roll out the scraps once, and cut additional biscuits if necessary. Do not continue rolling and cutting or you may end up with tough biscuits.

Scrape the potato mixture into the mixing bowl. Use your hands to gently pull the flour into the potato mixture, adding more buttermilk as needed to reach a moist dough. Dump the dough out onto a floured surface and press into a 1-inch-thick square. Cut out 16 square biscuits with a bench scraper, re-rolling scraps as necessary.
• Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl in the microwave.
