Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 cups flour
4 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick butter or margarine -- softened
2 eggs
4 tablespoons milk
6 pats butter

Preheat oven to 400. Mix first five ingredients in a food processor. Beat
together eggs and milk. Pour over flour mixture and process just enough to
blend. Roll out on floured board to about 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out 12
circles with a large round cookie cutter. Place six cut outs on baking
sheet. Top each with pat of butter and then top with a second cut out.

Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Split in middle to
create two layers for strawberry shortcake.
