This is another old recipe I found in my late mother's box of recipe clippings. This appears to have been from her local newspaper. I am posting it because I love the way it is written! The recipe was submitted by a Mrs. Campbell.
1 quart flour, heaping
1 teacup* lard
2 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt
1 cup cold water
Mix lard and flour as for pastry. Add baking powder and mix thoroughly. Dissolve sugar and salt in water and add, mixing the dough with a spoon.
Knead 15 or 20 minutes, or until it blisters. Bake in moderate oven for 35 minutes, in greased pan. Cut into squares to serve.
*A teacup measures about 3/4 of a standard measuring cup.
