1/2 c. melted butter
3/4 c. cooked, mashed yams
1/2 c. milk
1 1/4 c. sifted flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. sugar

Beat the melted butter into the mashed yams, and stir in the milk. Sift the dry ingredients together into the yam mixture, and mix well. Place dough on a floured surface and pat it smooth. Roll it out 1/2 inch thick, and cut with a 2 inch cutter. Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet, and bake in oven preheated to 450 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes.
