     2 c  Flour
   1/2 c  Sugar
     1 tb Baking powder

   1/2 ts Sp; salt
   1/2 ts Cream of tartar

 Recipe by: Kathleen Bernal (Eat-L)
 Mix, form , and bake at 350  until lightly browned on top.  We always
 separate the mixture into scone size lumps and set them in a cast iron pa  n
 to bake in the oven.
 Nuts and fruit are optional.  However, they are very good with dried
 cranberries or apricots.  In combination with pecans, I think you'll find
 there is very little that can beat their appeal.
