Zwieback

Ingredients

• 1/2 pound Flour
• 1/2 pint Milk
• 2 Eggs
• 1/2 pound Butter
• 3 heaping teaspoonfuls Royal Baking Powder
• 1/2 teacupful Sugar
• 1 teaspoonful Salt

Instructions

1. 1Sift together flour and baking powder. Rub in the butter, sugar and salt, adding the eggs one at a time. Then add milk and flour gradually, making a nice batter—not too stiff.
2. 2Pour the batter into a well-buttered, low cake pan. Bake in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
3. 3When done, take carefully out of pan and let cool completely. On the following day, cut with a sharp knife into slices about 1/2 inch thick.
4. 4Toast the slices in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) until golden brown and crisp.
