About 20 minutes before serving, preheat oven to 450 F. Grease large cookie sheet. Separate biscuits, then press each until twice its original size. With kitchen scissors, make 5 to 6 snips, from out edge almost to center. Place on cookie sheet and shape "Petals" to form "flower". Repeat with remaining dough. Brush each "flower" with milk; sprinkle with poppy seed. Bake 6 to 8 minutes, or until golden-brown. Makes 8.
