| Are you talking about Brother Tom's tea cookies? Brother Tom was one of my dad's best friends and he was known for his tea cookies at our hometown church. Country Bumpkin was asking for it cause they used to live next to eachother and she enjoyed his tea cookies. I have the recipe if that is what you are looking for, in the family church recipe book. |

| Love Tom's Tea Cakes..that's what we always called them!! :D |
|
| Back in those days, men in the church would call eachother "brother" as a gesture of closeness. At least that's what I always thoughts. My dad was Brother Raymond. |

| Here is the recipe, courtesy of Ms. Glenda: Posted by glenda_al (My Page) on Tue, Aug 10, 10 at 16:33 Brother Tom's tea cakes cream together the egg, sugar and margarine. add the soda, vanilla, and lemon flavoring, stir in the flour roll out on a floured board and cut with a biscuit cutter place on ungreased baking sheet bake 325 for 10 minutes until lightly browned makes about 5 dozen ***I copied it exactly from the l983 edition of the church recipe book THE COINCIDENCE TO THIS IS THAT: BRO TOM and his wife were friends of my parents, and I grew up with their children. We all went to the same church. come to find out country bumpkin knew them as well, cause they were from her side of town :o) SMALL WORLD |

| Glenda, that looks like such a yummy recipe. But, how would it be affected if I use butter instead of margarine? |
|
| Just got the cookbook out and it was published in l983 and rechecked the recipe. I don't know why using butter would make any difference except to make it even richer tasting???????? I always use Lake of Lakes in my baking. |
