Directions

  1. 1. Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in the butter.
  2. 2. Add enough warm milk to make a soft dough, easy to handle. Knead on floured board until dough is very smooth and soft but still elastic.
  3. 3. Do not use a lot of extra flour. Divide dough into six or eight balls and brush the tops with melted butter. Cover and let stand for 30 to 45 minutes.
  4. 4. Pat out each ball into a round, five or six inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick. Fry in deep fat preheated to 365 degrees.
  5. 5. Dough should rise immediately to surface. Cook until brown on one side, turn, and brown on other side being careful to not pierce the crust.
  6. 6. Drain on absorbent paper and serve hot.
