Biscuits - Lemon & Condensed Milk (Botswana) 🇧🇼

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Biscuits - Lemon & Condensed Milk (Botswana) 🇧🇼

Post by Chowhound »

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup fine sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
7 fluid ounces condensed milk
1 pinch salt
8 ounces unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
powdered sugar, for dusting

Cream together the butter and sugar, then add the condensed milk and keep blending until well mixed. Add the lemon juice and grated zest, then sift together the dry ingredients and add that too. Keep blending until the ingredients are well-incorporated. Take teaspoons of dough and roll them into balls, then place them on a greased baking sheet and flatten gently with a fork. Bake at about 335 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes, or until starting to brown underneath. Let cool, then dust with powdered sugar.
