SCONES
2 cups pastry flour
4 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
4 tbsp. fat
2 eggs
3 tbsp. Carnation Milk
3 tbsp. water
Sift dry ingredients, rub or cut in fat. Dilute Carnation with water; add milk with beaten eggs (reserving a little of the egg white); mix to soft dough. Roll out to ¾ inch thickness, cut into squares or diamond shapes. Brush over with a little of the reserved egg white and sprinkle with sugar. Bake in a hot (450°F) oven.
Cakes
The secret of making a light, feathery cake of velvety smoothness lies in the selection of materials of good quality, accurate measurements, and correct blending of ingredients. Always sift the flour once before measuring. Carefully follow the directions given for combining ingredients. To obtain a level cake it is well to push the dough toward the corners of the pan before putting the cake in the oven. When the cake is well browned, shrunken from the edge of the pan, and when the dough springs back quickly if slightly dented in the center, the cake is done.
