These delicious biscuit-like cookies will take you on a trip down memory lane. In MY STORY | discussed how the recipe came into my hands. It is practically an heirloom. Beatrice Walls, my aunt, began making the tea cakes around 1959. Her first experience with the tea cakes occurred when she was a little girl. Her mother and aunts would make them as family treats. She is currently 96 years old and can no longer make the treats because of arthritis. | try to send her a batch every other month or so. As the recipe was handed down, each cook added her own special touch. My version is her interpretation of how it should be done. She gave me the recipe as coconut. My only change was to add different flavors at my customers’ request.
Teacakes are $5 for 5 cakes.
