These are a mix between a cake and a cookie and not too sweet. The recipe came from my grandmother and everyone seems to love these... she always had them on hand when we came to visit. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon baking soda, dissolved in |
1 cup buttermilk |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
3 1/3 cups flour |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Mix together the sugar, margarine or butter, and egg. 2. Add buttermilk. 3. Add the rest of ingredients. 4. Cover and chill overnight. 5. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. 6. On floured surface, roll out dough to length of 12 and width of about 1/2 (resembling a pencil). 7. On ungreased baking sheets, shape into figure 8's. 8. Bake for 7-10 minutes or until just barely golden. 9. Remove to wire racks. 10. Brush with milk or cream while still hot. 11. Store in airtight container. |
