@Charhug, I have a question. You say to use 1.5 ounces of cream of chicken soup. That would be about 3 tablespoons. I'm wondering if that's correct, or if you meant 15 ounces. Here, I can't get 1.5 ounce cans...if that's correct, maybe sour cream or yogurt could be substituted? The consistency would be the similar, but the flavor would change a bit.

Thanks.

@nomless @Charhug

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the 1.5 ounce can is a typo . . . shouldn't it be one 10.5 ounce can of cream of chicken soup?

The recipe is so easy and sounds delicious! Thanks for posting, @Charhug

Hmmm... I may have to give this a whirl. I love chicken and dumplings.

Better Than Boullion is my favorite base and the only one I use when I make chicken soup.

Charhug - well I made it last night for dinner. And the recipe is a winner.

My picky eater son took a somewhat small serving and then was saying how much he liked it. And took a considerably larger second helping. And then my husband was glad there was some left over so he could eat it for lunch today.

Will definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing.

Hi there. I just wanted to say I posted this recipe about 3 years or so ago. Don't remember which web site this came from. I can say it is easy to make and tastes good. Thanks for the recipe reminder and for keeping the recipe going, as there are alot of new posters on the board that haven't seen the older posts. Take care.

By The Way...........Better Than Boullion is the best!!!

Hello @Charhug. I was actually planning on making Bisquick chicken and dumplings this weekend. This recipe looks very interesting and sounds delicious. I just have a silly question about the finished dish. Do you end up with a solid dumpling like crust on the top? At least that's what it appears to be from the recipe. Really want to make this but will have to find some Better Than Billion, never used it before.

Thanks.
