Bags of Gold

 

4 cups flour

2 tbsp. baking powder

1 tsp. salt

5 tbsp. shortening

water or milk for desired consistency

(approx. 1 1/3-1 1/2 cups)

1 lb. American cheese, cut into 1/2 " cubes

5 cans (10 1/2 oz.) tomato soup (concentrated)

 

1. Make up dough as you would for biscuits.

2. Roll dough into round balls around a cube of cheese in the center.

3. Drop balls into hot tomato soup (diluted with w/2 soup can of

water) and cook slowly until dough is cooked through-about 15 to 20

minutes.

4. Keep lid on tightly; do not peek. Serve dumplings with soup as sauce.

5. Add more water to soup before the next batch of dumplings is cooked.

 

*Note: tis was one of my two bestest favorites. We used Velveeta for

the cheese and Bisquick instead of scratch biscuits.
