Recipe - Tea Biscuits

4 cup Flour
8 teaspoon Baking powder
1 teaspoon Salt
2 tablespoon Sugar
2/3 cup Shortening

mix well.

Beat 2 eggs and add enough milt to make a soft dough (don't you love old
"precise" recipes??), roll out 1/2" thick, cut with a glass, and cook in a
rather hot oven about 450 for 1213 min.

makes a lot but they freeze well (I generally eat them all before they go
anyway...freeze? like anything ever lasts that long here!! Posted to
