Original recipe makes 8
3 cupsAll-purpose flour
1 cupmilk
2 Eggs
2 tspSalt

Dumplings Preparation

Mix ingredients with a sturdy spoon - this is a stiff dough. Bring a large pot of water with salt added to a boil. Dip a metal spoon (soup spoon size not teasppon size) into the boiling water and then scoop out a dumpling from the batter. Immediately place the dumping and spoon into the boiling water - the dumpling should fall off. Repeat until all the batter is used. Stir the dumplings off the bottom with a large spoon and let boil for 10 minutes. Remove and drain dumplings. Serve.

Notes

My son is wild about these dumplings and will use pan drippings or gravy on top of them. Sometimes he will just eat them plain too.
