Fried Drop Cakes

• 1⅓ cups flour.
• 2½ teaspoons baking powder.
• ¼ teaspoon

Beat egg until light; add milk, dry ingredients mixed and sifted, and melted butter. Drop by spoonfuls in hot, new, deep fat; fry until light brown and cooked through, which must at first be determined by piercing with a skewer, or breaking apart. Remove with a skimmer, and drain on brown paper.
