Old Fashioned Tea Cakes

I have been on the hunt for the perfect recipe for tea cakes. I have finally found it after trial and error.

Old Fashioned Tea Cakes

1/2 c. butter
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
1/2 t. nutmeg
1/2 t. vanilla
2 c. flour
1 1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. milk

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs one at a time. Add milk, nutmeg, and vanilla. Sift flour and baking soda together. Combine.

Roll dough and cut into squares. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. Yields approximately one dozen 3"x5" cakes.
