Blackberry Drop Dumplings

Flour the hands, take and shape spoonfuls of the soft-dough--either of the egg dumplings or made with one whole egg, or none--into biscuit shapes; put a spoonful of ripe berries in the middle, close up and drop the dumplings into a pan of boiling milk and water and cook inside the oven about twenty minutes. Baste with the milk and water twice to glaze. Serve with sauce. Halves of peaches can be used in the same way.

A little dexterity, acquired by practice in handling the soft dough is usually rewarded with light snow flake affairs that do not turn heavy with waiting.
