      2 c  Flour
    1/2 c  Sugar
      1 tb Baking powder
      2 ts Sp; vanilla powder
    1/2 ts Sp; salt
    1/2 ts Cream of tartar

      1 c  Chopped nuts; optional
      1 c  Dried fruit; optional

  Recipe by: Kathleen Bernal (Eat-L)
  Mix, form , and bake at 350° until lightly browned on top.  We always
  separate the mixture into scone size lumps and set them in a cast iron pa  n
  to bake in the oven.
  Nuts and fruit are optional.  However, they are very good with dried
  cranberries or apricots.  In combination with pecans, I think you'll find
  there is very little that can beat their appeal.
