TEENY TINY BUTTER DUMPLINGS FOR ONE

Steps:

• 1. Cream butter and egg. Add salt, baking powder and flour.
• 2. Bring soup or broth to a boil.
• 3. Drop dough from teaspoon into boiling mixture, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes. *If the steam hurts your hands, this is an alternative way to drop in the dough: Put the mixture into a zip-lock plastic bag. Snip off a corner. Keep a cup of cold water next to you to wet you fingers, and squeeze out the dough through corner of bag, snipping off dough with your fingers. Wet finger tips as needed. This way your hands can be held to the side of pot, rather than directly above the steam.

HEAVY DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. Beat together milk, salt and eggs.
• 2. Add enough flour to make a stiff dough.
• 3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a full boil. Dip a large clean spoon into the water and then drop a large spoonful of dough into the water. Dipping the spoon into the boiling water before each spoonful of dough helps keep the dough from sticking onto the spoon.
• 4. When all dumplings are in the water, cover loosely and cook 20 minutes stirring occasionally.
• 5. Drain, place in a serving dish and add melted butter. Toss to coat.
