In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in onion and cook until translucent. Add in flour and cook, stirring constantly for 1 minute.
While stirring, slowly pour in chicken broth and canned tomatoes. Stir until smooth, bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Season with sugar, salt and black pepper.
If a smooth soup is desired, divide the soup into two portions and puree until smooth in a blender. Return soup to pot and bring back up to a simmer.
Prepare biscuit mix as directed on package and drop spoonfuls of the biscuit batter into the simmering soup until all the batter is used. Cover pot and cook for 15-20 minute or until the dumplings are no longer doughy. Remove from heat.
Prepare the butter sauce using only 2 tablespoon of butter and the seasoning packet and brush over the tops of the dumplings in the pot and serve.
