Yorkshire Fat Rascals image

I found this old Yorkshire teatime recipe in Great British Cooking. These currant cookies are very simple, but it's impossible to eat only one!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • Mix in the pinch of salt and brown sugar, then rub in the butter.
  • Add the currants, milk and enough water to make a soft dough.
  • On a floured surface, roll out dough to about 1/2-inch thickness, and cut into 2-inch rounds.
  • Dust the rounds with sugar, and place on a well-greased baking pan.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the Rascals are lightly browned.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I've never had a Fat Rascal before, but these were delicious! The dough was light and airy, and the currants added a nice sweetness. I'm definitely going to try making these again.
