Steps:
- Mix bisquick, club soda and sour cream well.
- Melt butter in baking pan.
- Roll out dough about 1/2 inch thick.
- Cut with cutter and place in pan over melted butter.
- Bake at 375°F until brown (about 10-13 min).
- Brush tops with butter.
Tips:
- Use cold butter. This will help the biscuits to be flaky and tender. If you don't have time to chill the butter, you can freeze it for 15 minutes before grating it.
- Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make the biscuits tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Use a biscuit cutter. A biscuit cutter will help you to get even-sized biscuits. You can also use a glass or a cup to cut the biscuits, but be sure to dip the cutter or glass in flour first to prevent the dough from sticking.
- Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. This will help the biscuits to rise and brown quickly. Bake the biscuits for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Conclusion:
These biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make addition to any meal. The tips above will help you to make perfect biscuits every time.
