Milan Biscuits

Into a pound and a half of flour rub four ounces of butter, and add four ounces of sifted sugar. Mix with two well-beaten eggs a wine-glassful of brandy, and moisten the whole with this. When the paste is thinly rolled, cut it into any fanciful shapes with tin cutters. Brush the biscuits lightly over with egg, and bake in a quick oven for ten minutes. Probable cost, 10d. per pound. Sufficient for two pounds and a half of biscuits.
