Welsh Tea Cakes

 


Ingredients

2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cold butter (no substitutes)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 cup dried currants
Additional sugar, optional

Directions

1. Place flour in a bowl; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the sugar, oats, salt and nutmeg. Stir in the eggs and milk. Add currants.

2. On a heavily floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-1/2-in round cookie cutter. Place 2 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Sprinkle with sugar if desired. Bake at 350° for 12-16 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
