1/2 tsp each of bicarb and cr of tartar
1.5 oz butter
1 tsp honey
3 Tab milk plus extra

Sift drys together, then rub in butter finely.
Beat honey with milk and mix into crumble mixture.
Add enough extra milk to make a very soft dough  still able to be handled.

Roll out lightly on a well-floured board and cut into small rounds.
Bake on a greased tray in a very hot oven for about 10-12 mins. When half done, brush over with milk.

Eat hot or cold but on the same day.
