👩🍳Ingredient Notes:
Biscuit Mix – We’ll keep things simple and use an easy store bought biscuit mix like Bisquick. We haven’t tested this with Carbquick, but if you try it, please let us know how it goes.
Sour Cream – This makes the biscuits so soft and moist! You won’t taste sour cream in the finished product.
Soda – Our secret ingredient! Well maybe not so secret, since it’s in the title. 7 Up is the brand we’re using but Sprite would work too if that’s what you’ve got. Why use 7 Up? Because it works as a leavening agent, just like baking soda! You won’t taste lemon and lime in these biscuits, though.

“I cannot believe it! After over 50 years of trying, I finally made a tasty, soft, fluffy biscuit. I made them for chicken and biscuits but could not resist saving one to eat by itself as dessert. It was so good!” – Beth
🍽How to Make 7 Up Biscuits:

Mix: Add all but a half cup of the Bisquick to a bowl with the 7 Up soda and the sour cream. Mix it all up until it is just combined! It’ll be a mess still at this point – don’t worry about it.
Dough: Sprinkle your countertop with half of the remaining Bisquick, dump the biscuit dough onto the floured counter, and then sprinkle the rest over the top.
Use your hands to mix the Bisquick in with the dough. You’re going for a very soft dough that just holds together. If you need to you can add additional Bisquick – sometimes you need more and sometimes you don’t.
Pat the dough out until it is about a 1/2 inch thick and use a biscuit cutter to cut out 9 biscuits. Rework the dough as needed.
Butter: Melt the butter and dump it into an 8×8 baking dish and plop the biscuits right into the pool of melted butter. Can I be a 7 Up biscuit in my next life, please? Just floating around in a pool of butter…
