--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2      tb            Sour cream
  1      c             Less 2 tb sour milk
                       Or buttermilk
  1                    Egg
  1      t             Salt
  1      tb            Margarine -- melted
  2 1/2  c             Flour
  1      t             Baking soda
  1      t             Cinnamon
    1/4  c             Granulated sugar

 Put sour cream in a measuring cup. Add sour milk or   buttermilk to
fill cup. Pour into a large bowl and add the   egg, salt and melted
margarine. Blend well. Gradually, by   hand, add flour and soda, until
everything is mixed and   blended.   Remove to a mixing board and knead
until smooth. Let stand   3 hours or leave in refrigerator overnight.
Divide dough into serving pieces. Roll each piece 1/4 inch   thick; cut
2 parallel slits in
the center to make ears. Fry   in hot oil until golden brown. Dip each
piece in cinnamon   and sugar.     I like to make this in the evening
and put in frig.   overnight and then make them in the morning.   This
recipe orginally came from " Kentucky Cooking, Past   and Present". I
got it out of the 1984 HOME COOKING BOOK.
