Directions
Ingredients — One cup brown sugar, one-half cup butter, one- fourth teaspoon cinnamon mixed with three tablespoons gran- ulated sugar, one egg, one-half teaspoon baking powder, one and one-half cups flour, blanched almonds or seeded raisins. Method — Sugar to remove lumps, before measuring. Cream the butter, add the sugar, thoroughly beaten eggs and the baking powder sifted with the flour. Roll thin as possible, cut in diamond shape with a thin knife, brush top with beaten white of egg, sprinkle little cinnamon and sugar and place on butter sheet and bake eight minutes in a slow oven. A sheet 'is better than a pan, the latter retains too much heat. — Mrs. Richardson, Los Angeles, Calif.
"A pint is a pound the world around." QUICK PUFF PASTE.
One-half pound (one-half pint) cold butter, one-half pound cold flour. Chop the butter into the flour in small lumps about the size of dice; sprinkle with ice water, just enough to hold together, and mix very light. Put on flour dusted bake board, and press into a square shape; roll out half an inch thick and fold iq three ; give one more turn and give a rest ; give three more turns (five altogether), and it is ready for use. The same mixture may be made with the addition of one tea- spoon baking powder. Mix baking powder in the flour. — Contributed, Williams, Ariz.
