Margaret'S Irish Soda Bread

• 4 c. flour
• 3/4 c. sugar
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 c. (1 stick) butter
• 1 c. raisins
• 3 Tbsp. caraway seed
• 2 eggs
• 2 c. buttermilk

1. Prepare your favorite pancake batter.
2. Dip teaspoon into batter and let excess drain off.
3. Using the batter remaining on the spoon, draw any letters or numbers on the hot greased griddle.
4. Make the letters or numbers backwards.
5. When the underside is lightly browned, pour additional batter over the letters or numbers to form the pancake.
6. Make certain batter covers all of the letters or numbers.
7. Cook until bubbles appear; turn and brown second side. The letters or numbers will stand out being darker than the surrounding pancake.
8. (You can make animal pancakes in much this same way.)
