Powder Biscuits

34 Teaspoonful Salt 1/2 Tablespoonful Sugar 3 Tablespoonfuls Snowdrift Equal Parts Milk and Water (about a Cupful) Sift together the dry ingedients, then rub in the Snowdrift with the fingertips or the back of the mixing-spoon, until the mixture looks flaky. Pour in equal parts of milk and water to moisten-approximately a cupful-then quickly turn the mixture onto a slightly floured board and pat or roll it to one-half inch in thickness.

Shape into rounds with the biscuit cutter, tucking under the edges as you work, so there will be no remnants. Place, scarcely touching, on a baking-pan oiled with Snowdrift, and bake in a quick oven, 375 degrees F., about fifteen minutes.

Thin biscuits will bake in ten minutes.
