1/2 c. sugar
2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. melted shortening
1 beaten egg
5 c. flour

1 c. poppy seed, ground
1 c. sugar
2 level tbsp. shortening
3/4 c. milk

Scald 1 cup milk and 1 cup water; pour this hot mixture over 1/2 cup sugar and salt; stir. Let this mixture cool until lukewarm. Add 1 beaten egg and 1/2 cup melted shortening.
