Strawberry Shortcake
My mother's recipe for shortcake is the best---and it's easy to make.
2 cups sifted flour
3 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. salt
3 Tbls. sugar
Cut in 1/2 cup butter, margarine, or shortening (I use butter)
Mix together:
1 beaten egg
2/3 cup milk
Make a well in the center of flour mixture. Pour in egg and milk. Mix with fork only until moistened. Spread in greased tin. Sprinkle the top with some sugar and put some butter dabs on top (or not). Bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Serves 6.
