Short Cake

2 cups flour

4 tablespoons sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 stick butter or margarine -- softened

2 eggs

4 tablespoons milk

6 pats butter

Preheat oven to 400. Mix first five ingredients in a food processor. Beat together eggs and milk. Pour over flour mixture and process just enough to blend. Roll out on floured board to about 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out 12 circles with a large round cookie cutter. Place six cut outs on baking sheet. Top each with pat of butter and then top with a second cut out.

Bake in preheated oven 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Split in middle to create two layers for strawberry shortcake.
