Ingredients

1 egg
1 ½ pounds ground beef
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup corn flakes cereal, coarsely crushed
1 onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
1 ⅛ tablespoons white sugar
⅜ cup shortening
1 cup milk

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease two baking sheets.
Beat the egg in a bowl until smooth. Add the ground beef, cayenne pepper, crushed cereal, onion, salt, black pepper, and parsley. Mix until evenly combined; set aside. Stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a separate bowl. Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender until no lumps of shortening remain and the mixture takes on a sandy appearance. Stir in the milk until a dough forms.
Roll the dough out to a 10x15-inch rectangle on a well-floured surface. Spread the meat mixture evenly over the entire surface of the dough. Roll the dough into a cylinder from one of the wide ends to form a 15-inch long log. Cut the log into 3/4-inch slices and place on to the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven until dark golden brown, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve hot.
