Which way does the cut side of the biscuit face, toward the center biscuit or the edge of the cake pan? It sounds so good and easy. As soon as I receive my answer, I'm gonna make it. I can't wait!!! I Love Your Recipes, how do you do it?

When we lay the "half biscuits" down, which way does the cut side face? Around center biscuit or toward the outer edge of pan? I can't wait to try them, as soon as I receive my answer!!! I LOVE YOUR RECIPES, THEY ARE ALL DELICIOUS!!! How do you do it Paula?

I don't think it matters as long as they are facing the same direction. Either way, it will come out good :D
