Howdy from NW Louisiana. Thanks for sharing this delicious tea cake recipe can't wait to make some. Have a blessed day.

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Thank you! You too!

[@ignoranceisnotatrend4669]

I really like the idea of pulling apart the dough ,rolling it and then patting them down rather than putting them on a floured surface and cutting them out like biscuits, or refrigerating the dough for a little bit to be able to cut them into slices 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@christinesanders6802]

I made these cookies today. They are delicious. I made them just like you did by hand. Thanks for the video.

[@jesebsp]

danish dough whisks are awesome for any kind of dough or batter. mixes together quickly. I've used them for cookies, bread, cake, and quick bread batters.

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Good to know!

[@arlenaf.3503]

Great video. Subscribed.

[@juanitataylor6947]

Nickel would be a good size

[@youngestsibling]

I’m going to use this recipe it’s closest to my moms Thxs

[@madelyndavis6496]

I see the recipe now but I went by what you said in the video they would have been delicious next time I’ll make sure I read the recipe❤

[@stevenkelly5385]

What's with tea cakes,😄lol my wife also did a vid on tea cakes. I don't remember them as a kid. But they are good.

[@ignoranceisnotatrend4669]

What's with tea cakes...........Southern hospitality and I heard from older folks that they were created from making a cake but without all of the effort and time 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@therapybiz]

Thank you. My mom and I are trying your recipe tomorrow

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Hope you enjoy

[@lynnkiefer8373]

Favorite that my Mama Coots made but none of the family kept the recipe. She used self rising flour in hers. Sometimes she got fancy and added the lemon extract just as you described :)

[@meltaylor4999]

Brings back a lot of memories. My Grandma made them for us all the time growing up. No one got the recipe but we talk about the cookies. We lost her last year at 101 yrs young.Going to bring back a special family tradition. Thanks!

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

So sorry for your loss. I know certain things and smells bring back such fond memories of loved ones.

[@marilynbritton7287]

😋😋😋

[@bonnieriecke5199]

Yummy thanks

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Your Welcome!

[@anderander5662]

My mom made these......rolled them in coarse sugar

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

That's a great idea!

[@juanitataylor6947]

29th Oct Southern cal.

[@billiehicks6587]

Some people add baking powder and baking soda too.

[@HelenBridgewater-rd2ur]

I like those cookies ,easy bake thank you. ❤❤❤😂😂😂

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Your Welcome!

[@billiehicks6587]

How much flour did you use? You also didn’t mention you included baking powder.

[@user-qc8do8rl6f]

I was going to ask if I can add half of tsp of vanilla just to add flavor? I love vanilla. ❤️ ❤️

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Yes, absolutely

[@debraward1813]

Looks soooooo yummy! That scraping noise in the bowl is like fingernails on a chalkboard though😱

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

lol

[@juanitataylor6947]

I'm 83 remember grandma made in 40

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

They are a good cookie for Ingredients that most people have in their pantry.

[@dianehelensarno2060]

Definitely trying these cookies !! I absolutely love your apron!! So pretty and it’s long I love it!! Where did you purchase it it’s lovely 🙏❤️

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

A friend of mine made it. But thank you!

[@Carolwarr448]

If you use self rise flour how much should you use.? I love Tea Cakes and would love to make them myself. Oh can i add pecans? Thank you for the recipe. 😊

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Use the same amount of flour.

[@madelyndavis6496]

Did you mean soda or baking powder on the video you said 31/2tsp b soda please tell me

[@billiehicks6587]

I see that you didn’t include butter milk or can cream. Some people place the dough in the fridge over night, for two hours. It looks like the size of the Jack ball.

[@lulubelle1541]

My thought exactly but I wondered if anyone here was old enough to have played with Jacks. Another ball I thought of that may be known only to me is a rubber ball inside a golf ball.

[@carolynadams6514]

Your recipe shows baking powder, but in your video you said to add baking soda. Will you please let us know which is correct baking powder or baking soda? Thank you.

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Baking powder. Thank you for letting me know.

[@madelyndavis6496]

Please don’t use soda mess up my whole batch

[@redmashburn0256]

Do u have a homemade banana bread recipe?

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

I do! Thank you for the suggestion.

[@cathyholoway722]

You need a hair net on.

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

Im only making them for my family. Do you wear a hairnet when you cook for your family?

[@leonabutler6095]

I love your reply about the hair net

[@orlisajohnson9171]

Why they are called tea cakes and you keep calling it a cookie?

[@jewellfamilyfarm9597]

They are actually a cookie. I think they were originally an (English) Tea Cake
