Take out golf ball sized portions of dough, and roll them together between your palms

Place dollar-sized balls of dough on the pan
Sprinkle a few dried lavender bits over each cookie
Bake the biscuits in the oven at 350°F (180°C) for 9-10 minutes
They will be golden brown and have slight cracks when finished
Allow the biscuits to cool for a minimum of 15 minutes
Enjoy!
