Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, cake, enriched
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
butter, without salt
milk, fluid, 1% fat, without added vitamin a and vitamin d

Directions:
Combine the flour, baking powder and butter in the food processor bowl with double-sided blade.
Process until the mixture resembles course breadcrumbs.
With the motor running, add the milk through the feed tube and process until the dough forms a ball round the blade.
More milk may be needed to form a very soft, but not wet, dough.
Do not over work.
Roll out the dough on a floured board and cut into rounds with a pastry cutter.
Arrange on a greased baking sheet and brush with beaten egg or milk.
Bake in a hot oven 450 deg F for 10-12 minutes until risen and golden.
Variations.
For a richer dough, beat 1 egg in measuring cup and top up with milk up to 150ml.
Or add 2 teaspoons sugar and 2oz currants to the dry ingredients.
