SODA BISCUIT.
388. Six ounces of butter,
Six ounces of sugar,
One tea spoonful of the carbonate of soda,
One pint of milk,
Flour enough to form a dough.
Melt the butter in the milk and dissolve the soda in it. Stir in the sugar, and add flour enough to form a stiff dough.
Knead it well, roll it out thin, then knead it up again until it is smooth and light. Roll it out in sheets about a quarter of an inch thick, cut it into cakes, and bake them in a rather hot oven.
