Cherry Dumplings
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups stone cherries
- 2 heaping tablespoons lard
- 2 cups sweet milk
- 1 cup prepared flour, or use flour and baking powder same as for biscuits

After rubbing the lard into the salted flour, add the milk, then roll out 1/4 inch thick. Cut into squares and into the middle of each one put 2 spoonfuls of the stoned cherries. Add sugar, and then bring the edges together and pinch closely. Bake until done on a floured baking pan, with the joined edges at the bottom. Eat while hot.
