Preheat oven to 450F.
Pour the melted butter into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the buttermilk and stir until the dough forms (it will be very sticky). Scoop the dough into the baking dish on top of the butter and spread out evenly.
Use a knife to cut the dough in the pan into 9 squares. Tip: dip the knife in the melted butter along the sides of the baking dish to make it easier to cut the dough without it sticking to the knife.
Bake the biscuits at 450F for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool slightly before serving.

Store butter swim biscuits in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
