Light Biscuits
LIGHT BISCUITS No. 1.
Take a piece of bread dough
that will make about as many biscuits as you wish; lay it out rather flat
in a bowl; break into it two eggs, half a cup of sugar, half a cup of butter;
mix this thoroughly with enough flour to keep it from sticking to the hands
and board. Knead it well for about fifteen or twenty minutes, make into
small biscuits, place in a greased pan, and let them rise until about even
with the top of the pan. Bake in a quick oven for about half an hour.
NOTE: These can be
made in the form of rolls, which some prefer.
LIGHT BISCUITS No. 2.
When you bake take a pint
of sponge, one tablespoonful of melted butter, one tablespoonful of sugar,
the white of one egg beaten to a foam. Let rise until light, mold into
biscuits, and then light bake.
