My grandmother made these in her woodstove oven and I have always guessed at the cooking temperature and cooking times. As is usual with lots of older recipes no exact amount of flour was listed either. Ingredients:
1 egg |
1 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup shortening |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 teaspoons cream of tartar |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup granulated sugar for decoration |
3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk |
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients, except flour. Add enough flour to make a rollable dough, about 2 cups.
2. Roll out to approximately 1/2 inch thick. Cut with round biscuit cutter and sprinkle with sugar.
3. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F (175 degree C) oven for 8 - 10 minutes.
