Butter Dips

1/4 cup butter
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk

Heat oven to 450 degrees. In square pan, 9x9x2 inches, melt butter in oven. Remove pan from oven.

Measure flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt into bowl. Add milk; stir just until dough forms.

Turn dough onto well-floured board. Roll dough around to coat with flour. Knead lightly about 10 times. Roll into 8-inch square. With well floured knife, cut dough in half, then cut each half into nine 4-inch strips. Dip each strip into melted butter, coating sides; arrange strips close together in 2 rows in pan. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

These go well with most any dish.
