These easy three ingredient biscuits have the butter baked right in! Once you make this delicious recipe for butter biscuits you’ll be hooked, so you might want to make a double batch!
This is one of what I call my secret weapon recipes. Secret weapon recipes are those recipes that you can completely, totally, 1000% rely on to work Every Single Time, and that are also a little bit different and a whole lot of delicious.
I count my scrambled eggs with ricotta and chives in this category, as well as my recipe for naked ravioli and my beloved Blue Dory cookie recipe too.
These delectable biscuits are the biscuit version of my secret weapon recipe, and let’s just say that the first time I made them, the Southern husband ate all of them.
In one day.
A full biscuit recipe, gone just like that. It was both alarming and highly satisfying all at the same time…and here’s how it’s done.
Here is how you make butter biscuits!
First, the ingredients you need for these little gems: Bisquick. Sour cream. Butter.
Yup, that’s it. That’s all you need for what I solemnly promise will be some of the best biscuits you are ever going to eat.
The combination of the sour cream and the butter makes these babies taste like they are already buttered. And how fabulous is that?
Almost as good is the fact that all you need to do is mix up these three ingredients, scoop the batter into a muffin tin, bake them until they are golden, and then try and exercise enough self control not to eat them all in one sitting.
Not that anyone would ever do that. (Right, honey?)
I’ll stop now and let you get to baking some butter biscuits, because I don’t want you to go another minute without this deliciousness. Secret weapon recipes!

Sitting here in rural Northern Ontario, the snow is piling up around me. Twins are down for a nap, and my mouth is watering! Chicken pot pie is in the works but wishing I had Bisquick on hand to complete tonight’s meal! Any recipe for substitution?

Quick question – can you use this dough to make pigs in a blanket? If so, how long would you think to bake it?
Kate Morgan Jackson says
Hi Margaret! I don’t see why not, and I would bake them for the same amount of time as you would if you were making them as regular biscuits. If you try it, can you come back and let us know how they came out? Thank you! :)
