Step 1: You Can Use Bisquick

But I didn't have any so I made some

2 1/2 cups flour

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

Mix together

Add 1/2 cup Crisco with a fork

1/2 cup sour cream

1 cup Sprite or 7-up

Stir til blended

Step 2: Combine Till Soft Dough Forms

you can use a fork or you fingers to cut in the Crisco

Step 3: Pat Till 1/2 Inch Thick

turn out on a floured surface

kneed a few times then pat to 1/2 inch thick

Cut into biscuits. I don't have one so I used a measuring cup.

melt the butter into the dish you want to bake in

Bake at 375 until golden brown about 10 minutes

I feel my blood sugar rising already....along with the dough.

It is hard to type while eating a caramel egg, what is blood sugar? ;)

I would never have thought to use cup measure. Necessity is the mother of invention.

Does the sprite make them sweeter or does it just give them a fluffier texture?

[YdnicR]

I usually use a glass but the cup was sitting there...

Yes, both sweeter and fluffier than regular baking power biscuits. I used to make them with 7-up but my son had some Sprite in his mini-fridge so I decided to give it a try. Hope you try them and like them. I am a Yeast Roll kind of girl but these are great in a quick pinch and make great biscuits and gravy.

I love the way that yeast makes the house smell. It always reminds me of visiting my grandmother--since my mother was not the baking sort of person (any you did not want to eat it if she did decide to bake). I will be trying this soon. My boys are big bread eaters and they love the hot fresh kinds best.

our moms must be sisters, LOL. We always say she uses the smoke alarm to tell when dinner it done. HA HA. Get some Bisquick and have the boys make these themselves. I let the neighbor kids come make chocolate chip cookies from the mix. I had one little boy come nearly every week from 7 to 15 years old. Not many mother's bake much these days. Kids love that there is Sprite in these. Enjoy!

sounds like a good idea.
