If I'm giving out multiple copies of a game, should I be giving them away separately? Or all at once? Does it matter? Will Steam Gifts credit me for 5 copies if I successfully give out 5 copies?

No need to give them away seperately. Just put 5 in the number of copies. If the winners mark received, you'll get your CV's worth. ^^

It will credit you with the correct amount of copies. If you are giving away games just to give away games, it doesn't matter.

Up to your preference. It will give credit for all five copies.

If you're going to make the exact same giveaway with the same criteria for each one, it's better to make one with multiple copies since it's less work and cuts out the possibility of rolling a duplicate winner.

I'd make one giveaway with multiple copies of the game just to avoid the slim chance of one person winning multiple giveaways and having to do a reroll. Otherwise it doesn't matter.

Notice that some entrants prefer having one giveaway with multiple copies, instead of multiple giveaways for one copy, since it costs less points. but as other said - totally up to you.

Thanks everybody! It turns out that Steam Gifts is only letting me give out one key at a time anyway, so it doesn't matter.

You just need to wait for your other giveaways to be marked received before those slots get freed up again. You should get another slot added to the total once that happens.

In other words you need a total of five available slots to post a giveaway of five copies. Since you have 6 registered sent giveaways you should have 5 slots already, but some of them might be occupied if you have ongoing ones. So wait until all your other GAs have finished and then make one big GA with the 5 copies, for the reasons described by the other posts. :)
