Ingredients
- ½ cup (1 stick) salted butter
- 4½ cups Bisquick (or a similar all-purpose baking mix)
- 1 cup 7-Up (or a similar lemon-lime soda)
- 1 cup sour cream (do not use light)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and heat in the oven until melted. Remove from the oven.
- In a large bowl, combine the Bisquick, 7-Up, and sour cream. The dough will be sticky. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and add more baking mix if necessary to make it easier to handle.
- Roll or pat the dough into a 1-inch thick circle. Use a round cutter (or any round object like a small bowl or glass) to cut out circles of dough. Arrange the biscuits in the pan with melted butter.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the biscuits soak up the melted butter before serving.
