• Ready In: 1 hr
• Yields: 10 dozen

Ingredients

• 5 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
• 2 (1ounce) envelopes  spring  vegetable soup mix (like Knorr)
• 1  teaspoon baking soda
• 2  tablespoons butter, softened
• 1  large egg
• 2  cups buttermilk
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Combine 4 1/2 cups flour, soup mix, and soda in a large mixing bowl; add butter and egg, beating at medium speed with an electric mixer until blended.
2. Add buttermilk, beating well.
3. Stir in enough remaining 1 cup flour to form a soft dough. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead 4 or 5 times.
4. Divide dough into fourths; roll each portion into a 10 x 12-inch rectangle (about 1/16 inch thick). Cut into 2-inch squares, using a pastry wheel or pizza cutter, and place on lightly greased baking sheets. Prick with a fork and sprinkle with salt.
