If you use baking powder and mix them up the night before, the
buttermilk/liquid will start the leavening prematurely, and they would be
pretty flat. You might be able to set them by baking for half the time the
night before then complete the baking in the morning. Personally, I mix up
all the dry ingredients and butter the night before. Then in the morning, I
turn on the oven, add the buttermilk, roll/pat out, cut and they are ready
to bake before the oven has had time to heat. Three minutes tops.
