Ingredients

  5. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt.
  6. Add melted butter; set pan aside.

  13. Cool slightly and cut into small squares.
  14. May be frozen.
  15. If you freeze, flash freeze.

  20. Before serving, reheat in 400-degree oven 10 minutes or until hot.
  21. Sylvia's notes: As usual, I didn't have the right size pan, so baked it in two pie pans for 15 minutes at 400 and then 15 minutes at 350.
  22. They were just a hair too well browned.
  23. Quite tasty and would work well as a potluck where they could be kept warm or nuked
