Easy 7-Up Biscuits

By msippigrl

Light and fluffy, buttery fresh made biscuits are just a few minutes away. Who'd thunk 4 little ingredients could taste so good! No kneading either, just mix together, pat out and cut.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup salted butter (1-stick)
• 4 1/2 cups all-purpose baking mix such as Bisquick (I used Great Value brand)
• 1 cup 7-Up soda pop (or other lemon-lime soda), well chilled
• 1 cup cold sour cream (I used Daisy brand, Light)

Preparation

Step 1

Measure the baking mix into a large mixing bowl and place it in the freezer until needed.

Meanwhile, prepare a well-floured work surface. (I floured a sheet of parchment paper.) Preheat oven to 425°F.

Cut the butter into pats and place them in a 9x13-inch baking dish; place it in the oven just until the butter melts, no longer. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl, make a well in the center of the cold baking mix; add 7-Up and sour cream to the well and stir together until combined then stir into the baking mix just until moistened. Do not over-mix dough.

Turn the dough onto the floured work surface. Sprinkle baking mix or flour on top of the dough and gently pat out with hands to about 1-inch thickness.

Cut biscuits out with a 2 - 2 1/2" biscuit cutter, leaving them where they are until all have been cut. Gather the scraps and pat out again. Place the biscuits in the pan on top of the melted butter.

Place in oven and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Remove from oven and let the biscuits sit for a few minutes to absorb any remaining butter.
