Ingredients

18 ounces plain flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Work all ingredients together and let the dough stand for 20 minutes, in a cool place.
Put dough into a pastry bag or cloth and press/roll dough into long thin rolls.
Cut rolls into equal sized pieces (about 5-6 inches long) and on a well-greased cookie sheet, form each piece into a small ring slightly overlapping the cut ends.
