 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    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.
