  1. Kristen,
    Cool blog! I'd never heard of twice-baked sweet potatoes before.
    In case you don't have Nannie Morris' English Tea Cake recipe, here it is---

    Sift together 1 3/4 c. all-purpose flour,
    1 1/2 tsp. double-acting baking powder,
    1/4 tsp. salt

    Mix until creamy 1/4 c. soft shortening,
    1/4 c. butter or margarine,
    3/4 c. sugar
    1 egg

    Add flour mixture to creamed mixture then add 3 TBS. milk and mix well.
    Refrigerate until dough is easily handled.
    Start heating oven to 400 F.
    Roll dough into ball the size of walnuts.
    Dip tops in 1 egg white and granulated sugar.
    Bake on greased cookie sheet 12-15 minutes.
    Makes about 3 dozen.

    I haven't made these in a long time and kept the recipe out when I ran across it recently. I'm planning to make it after we eat up the biscuits and breakfast cookies.

    Have a good weekend!
    Love, Lise
