Egg stuffed sour cream biscuits

My dear brother was here for Thanksgiving and while getting ready to cook thanksgiving feast, I realized I was missing sour cream... for my most popular  Dill Sour cream mashed potato. As my brother was going out I asked him to get a "small size" pack of sour cream but not the "Smallest size"...Guess what size he got for me. THE 3LB TUB OF SOUR CREAM. I used about 1 lb of it and I have about 2/3 of the sour cream tub which I am trying to find ways to use.

And this sour cream biscuit recipe is one of the recipes for the mission. I have made biscuits before but they were not very fluffy. These are great. I made a couple of changes to the original recipe . I filled my biscuits with onion scrambled eggs.
