Ingredients:
1/2 lb. butter, 2 lbs. fine wholemeal flour, 1/2 pint milk.

Directions:
Dissolve the butter in the milk, which should be warmed, then stir in the meal and make into a stiff, smooth paste, roll it out very thin, stamp it into biscuits, prick them out with a fork, and bake on tins in a quick oven for 10 minutes.
