Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 1/2 c. all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. butter
1 egg
3 tbsp. milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla flavoring
(You can add a little nutmeg, perhaps 1/4 teaspoon, if you want more flavor and are fond of nutmeg. You could grind up a few tablespoons of pecans in a clean coffee grinder and add as well, for a little different approach. Mix either or both with sugar before you add egg to be sure nutmeg and/or ground pecan meal is evenly distributed. You can roll this out 1/4 inch thick, and cut with biscuit cutter or similar device, like a clean mason jar lid, if you prefer more uniformity.)

Steps:

Cream butter; add sugar and well beaten egg. Add salt and vanilla flavoring. Sift flour and baking powder. Add slowly to mixture, alternating with milk until mixed. Drop by spoonful and gently flatten. Bake at 350 degrees for 8 to 12 minutes depending on oven and size of spoon that you use.
