Ingredients:
4 cup All purpose flour
1 tsp Baking powder
1 tbsp Sugar
1 tbsp Melted butter
2 cup Milk, heated to boiling
Instructions:
hot fat for frying powdered sugar (optional)

In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and sugar. Mix in the butter
and hot milk until a stiff dough is formed. Turn out onto a lightly
oiled surface and knead until smooth and cooled. Divide dough into
four parts. Shape each into a ball. Divide each into 4 parts to make
16, then divide each of the resulting balls into 2 parts to total 32.

Cover baking sheets with waxed paper and dust the waxed paper lightly
with flour.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out each part of dough to make a
thin round about 8 inches in diameter. Place the rounds on the
floured waxed paper. Chill 30 minutes.

In a skillet, heat 2 inches of fat to 375 to 400 degrees F. Vegetable
shortening or corn or peanut oil may be used but the authentic fat is
lard.

Fold gthe dough rounds, one at the time, into quarters, and, with a
sharp-tipped knife, make little cuts and cut-outs in the dough. Fry
the bread rounds, until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side.
Remove and drain on paper toweling. Store in an airtight container
in a cool place or in the freezer until ready to serve.
