Preheat the oven to 425°F. Pour 2/3 melted butter into the bottom of a 10-inch cast iron skillet or similar. Swirl to coat the sides or brush sides with a pastry brush. Set aside.
Pour the biscuit mix into a medium size mixing bowl. Using a fork or pastry blender cut the sour cream into the biscuit mix until it resembles peas.
Make a well in the center and add 7UP. Mix well into the biscuit mix until fully moistened.
Use a regular size ice cream scoop (4-oz) to divide the dough dropping side by side in the buttered skillet.
Brush the tops with reserved melted butter. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffy.
Serve hot with butter and jam, if desired.
Rolled Biscuits - Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. (You can use additional baking mix)
Turn the dough a few times to coat. Use a floured rolling pin to roll to 1-inch thickness.
Dip a 21/2-inch or 3-inch round biscuit cutter in flour. Cut biscuit dough into rounds, placing side by side in skillet. Brush tops with melted butter then bake per the recipe until golden brown.

Biscuit and Baking Mix - You can use a well known brand of biscuit mix such as Bisquick or a private label store brand that you enjoy.
Sour Cream - You can use full fat sour cream or light sour cream in these biscuits. You could also use plain Greek yogurt, instead.
Cheese - You could add 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the biscuit mix prior to adding the wet ingredients and mixing together.
Herbs and Seasonings - You can add 1 teaspoon garlic powder and fresh chives to the biscuit mix.
