Preheat oven to 350F.
Sieve flour, baking powder & sugar into a bowl. Cut butter into pieces and rub it into the flour until the mix resembles breadcrumbs. Stir in everything else, and mix to form a stiff batter.
Put rounded tablespoons of the batter onto a greased baking sheet, about two inches apart. Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Cool on a rack. These will keep in an airtight tin for a few days at most.
