In a large pot over medium heat, simmer chicken in 6 cups water until cooked through.

Remove the chicken from the pot, cool and shred.

Return the chicken to the pot and add in butter, salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is tender, 15 to 60 minutes.

In a bowl, stir together the baking mix and milk until smooth.

In another bowl, stir together 1/2 cup cold water and flour  until smooth.

Slowly add the flour mixture into soup while stirring; bring soup to a rolling boil.

Drop the dumplings made from the baking mix by tablespoonfuls into the boiling water.
