Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • ¾ cup white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ cup butter

  • ½ cup dried currants

  • ¼ cup buttermilk

  • 1 egg

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon caraway seed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

  2. Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and caraway in a mixing bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in currants.

  3. Mix in beaten egg. Pour in buttermilk and mix with a fork to make a soft dough (may need a little more buttermilk).

  4. On a floured surface, shape dough into a ball and knead lightly 5 or 6 times. Roll out dough 1/4 inch thick and cut into squares and triangles with a knife. Place cookies on the prepared baking sheets.

  5. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until slightly browned.
