Nut Biscuits

Stir flour, salt and baking powder together. Rub or cut in the lard and add the nuts and sugar.

Add milk gradually until the mixture is soft and spongy. Turn onto a slightly floured board and roll lightly until of a uniform thickness, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut with a small floured biscuit cutter.

Place on a greased pan and bake for 12 or 15 minutes in a quick oven.

Butter and serve while hot.
