4 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. salt
Milk
2 c. white sugar
1 c. butter
3 c. currants
3 eggs

Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Rub in shortening. Add sugar. Place eggs in 1 cup measuring cup and fill with milk. Add to flour mixture and mix.

Roll and cut with a round cookie cutter or a water glass dipped in flour. Bake on a teflon griddle until nicely browned on each side. Can be baked in an oven but it makes a drier cookie and not as tasty.
