Sugar Biscuits
420. Three-quarters of a pound of sugar,
Half a pound of butter,
One pint of milk,
One tea spoonful of carbonate of soda,
Flour sufficient to make a dough.
Melt the sugar, butter, and soda in the milk.
When the milk is lukewarm stir in the flour till it forms a dough. Knead it well for a very long time, then roll it out in sheets, and with a sharp knife cut it in squares, butter your tins, and bake them in a hot oven.
