2 1/2 c. sifted enriched flour
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. brown sugar
2/3 c. shortening (I use butter)
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 c. sour milk
2 well beaten eggs

Combine flour, salt, sugar, shortening and mix until crumbly. Reserve 1/2 cup to sprinkle over batter. To remaining crumbs, add baking powder, soda, mix thoroughly. Add milk and eggs, mix well. Pour into 2 waxed paper lined 8 x 8 x 2 inch baking pan. Sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Or use a greased 9 x 9 x 2 inch pan. Bake 40 minutes.

Chopped nuts and cinnamon may be sprinkled over crumbs. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
