Cut the softened butter into dry mixture with fork or food processor/pastry blender until the mixture is crumbly.

Take a spoon and scoop a sizable amount of the biscuit mixture (about 1/4 cup) and drop it into the sugar/spice mixture and roll to coat.

Continue doing this until you've used up all of the biscuit batter.
