Butter Dips

This dish was a favorite for breakfast in my house. It's basically a biscuit dough that you cut into strips instead of rounds and bake in--you guessed it--butter (yum)! They come out nice and crispy. I like to dip them in my fried egg yolk till it's gone and then eat the rest with jam. In Matthew's family they had the same recipe but ate them like bread sticks to go with dinner, so you can choose what you like. Bottom line is they are good.

1/3 c butter or margarine
2 1/4 c sifted flour
1 T sugar
4 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 c milk

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut up butter into pieces and put in 9x13; put pan in oven to melt butter.

Sift dry ingredients into bowl. Add milk. Stir slowly with a fork until dough just clings together. Turn dough out onto a well floured board. Knead lightly 10 times. Roll out into a rectangle just a little less than 1/2 inch thick. Cut in half lengthwise, then into strips.

The butter should be melted by now so remove pan from oven. Dip each strip in butter, coating all sides and line up in pan. Bake 18 mins or until browned.
