Description

Ingredients



  • two ounces caster sugar

  • four ounces butter

  • six ounces flour



Method



  • Soften the butter and work in the sugar by hand.

  • Add the flour, a little at a time, again mixing by hand, the warmth of the hand keeping the mixture soft and pliable.

  • Then put on a lightly-floured board, and divide equally into small balls.

  • Take a scallop shell, sprinkle with a little sugar and press each ball against its base to make a thin, fan-shaped cake.

  • Place the cakes on a greased, shallow tin, with a generous space between each one.

  • Bake in a hot oven for a few minutes only – they should not turn brown.

  • Sprinkle with caster sugar while warm.


Bryngwran, Anglesey.
