I tried making some. Used a recipe from the Lardy Bikers website. Had it half butter & half Lard. Nothing like it !!! WAY too buttery , more like a flat scone !

So rejigged the mix to mainly all Lard, and one tiny wee scoop of butter. Much more like it . ( But I`d just miss out the butter at all, and spread that on thick once they`d cooled down for eating.

Aye, I like mine cold !!!
