This is a family recipe that's been made at Christmas time by at least 4 generations. This year will be the first for number 5!!! 'Bubba' brought it with her when she came from Lithuania. I pass it on in the true spirit of this season!

This is a particularly light biscuit -thanks to lots of baking powder -that pairs delectably with butter and jam.

I've baked many batches of different cookies through the years, but family and friends tell me these are the best. The simple buttery flavor appeals to all. 

Cream Tea Cakes

Submitted by: Marc Boyer
"Cream cakes" are not a specific item, but a term that refers to a variety of goodies served at tea. Scones, cakes, buns, and biscuits may be spread with cream and/or jam. The cream is a wonderfully thick, yellowish reduction named "clotted cream" sometimes available imported in glass jars at trendy gourmet food markets. Here's a Lake District recipe for "Upland's Biscuits".

I keep busy with our baby daughter and helping my dad on his dairy farm. But when I have time-usually in the winter-I love to bake. I make these tea cakes every Christmas. I double the recipe and freeze half for later.

This is an Austrian recipe that was passed on from one generation to the next in my family. The secret of this cake's full flavour and softness: Prepare it one day in advance before eating it!
