Ingredients
1/2cupbutter
4 1/2cupsor more Bisquick baking mix
1cup7up
1cupsour cream
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Add butter to a 9x13 inch baking dish and place in the oven for 5-7 minutes to melt butter. Keep an eye on the butter, as you do not want it to burn. Remove from oven.
In a large bowl, mix together 4 cups Bisquick, 7up, and sour cream. The dough will be quite sticky. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Bisquick over a small work area. Spoon dough over top. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Bisquick over the dough. Dust hands with Bisquick.
Work the dough by patting and folding. Repeat until the dough is workable. Pat dough out to about 1 inch thick. Dip biscuit cutter in Bisquick. Cut the biscuits and place them in the baking dish with the melted butter. Rework the dough just enough to pat it out to cut any remaining biscuits.
Bake for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
Save yourself a bowl and melt the butter in the baking dish you intend to use while you are preheating the oven. Keep an eye on the butter, as you do not want it to burn.
Allow the butter to cool slightly before proceeding with the rest of the biscuit recipe.
This is a soft, sticky dough. When working it and patting it out, add only enough Bisquick to make it work as you want to keep it a relatively soft dough. That is part of what makes it so delicious.
I like my biscuits not too thick and not too thin. Obviously, if you cut them thicker, you are going to get fewer biscuits, and they will need a couple more minutes of baking time.
For square biscuits, simply use a knife and cut the dough into 12 biscuits.
You can substitute any lemon-lime soda like Sprite or ginger ale for the 7Up.
I have used store-brand baking mixes for this recipe with good success.
Store the baked biscuits in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
