bout £ pt. milk. Sieve the flour, salt, and baking powder into a basin and rub in the butter as lightly as possible. Make a well in the centre, and add enough milk to make a softish dough. Mix quickly and lightly, then turn out on a floured board, and form the dough into small rolls. Place them on a greased and floured baking tin and bake at once in a quick oven. The time required will depend on the size of the rolls, from 15 to 20 minutes. When brown and crisp, brush the rolls over with a little milk or melted butter to glaze them. Note. — Success will depend on quick and light working up, and putting the rolls at once in a good oven. Probable cost, 5 d. or 6 d. 2660.
