Breakfast Biscuits

Mix flour with cream to a proper consistency, and salt to taste. One pound of flour to a quarter of a pint of thin cream will make a paste sufficiently stiff. Form into small biscuits, prick them, and bake in a hot oven for fifteen or twenty minutes. Probable cost, about 6d. Or, mix flour as stated with a small bit of butter, the size of a pigeon's egg, and moisten with a quarter of a pint of cold water; add a little salt, and bake in a hot oven for fifteen minutes. Probable cost, about 4d.
