Description

Ingredients

one pound self-raising flour
quarter pound butter
quarter pound lard
one cupful sugar
one cupful currants
two eggs, well beaten
a little salt
a little milk


Method

Rub the butter and lard into the flour and add all the other dry ingredients.
Mix with the beaten eggs and a little milk to make a soft dough.
Turn out on to a floured board, roll out, and cut into small rounds.
Grease the bakestone lightly and heat moderately. (Sprinkle a little flour on it and if it browns fairly quickly, it has reached the correct temperature.)
Bake the cakes on it, allowing two or three minutes for each side.
