Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine sugar, sour cream, and club soda in a medium bowl, stirring well.
- Add biscuit mix, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead 10 to 12 times.
- Shape dough with hands into 6 biscuits about 1-inch thick.
- Place 1 biscuit in the center of a lightly greased 8-inch round cake pan.
- Arrange remaining biscuits in a circle around the center one.
- Bake at 450° F for 16 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter biscuit, consider using plain yogurt instead of sour cream. If you don't have club soda, sparkling water or even a splash of lemon-lime soda can add the necessary carbonation. Be careful not to over-knead the dough; just enough to bring it together for tender biscuits. If you're feeling adventurous, you can add herbs or cheese into the mix for extra flavor.
