    Recipe Introduction


    NOTES:

    Non fat dry milk may be substituted for whole milk in Step three. Increase shortening Step 2 to 1 pound 10 ounces. Blend 1 cup and 1 TBSP of non fat dry milk, with the dry ingredients in Step one and substitute 6 1/8 cups of water for all of the milk in Step three.

    1 quart = 4 cups
