Homemade Chicken and Dumplings

Ingredients:

2 cups Flour

1/2 tsp Baking Powder

1 pinch salt

2 tbsp butter

1 cup milk, a bit less than a full cup

2 quarts chicken broth

3 cups cooked chicken (I cooked mine in chicken broth)

1 can chicken broth for uncooked chicken

1 can cooked carrots

Directions:

 Cook chicken in chicken broth with added water about an inch over chicken in pot. Remove cooked chicken and reserve broth.

  In a bowl, combine the flour, baking and salt. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients with a fork. Stir in the milk, mixing with a fork until the dough forms a ball. Heavily flour the work surface. Roll the dough out thin with a heavily floured rolling pin. You can use a spatula to remove dumplings from surface. Cut dumplings with a pizza cutter or fancy cutter. Cut them about 2x2, or smaller. You can cut them whatever your preference is.

  To cook the dumplings, bring the broth to a boil. Drop dumplings in one at a time and stir constantly. Cook them until not doughy in the middle. About 20-30 minutes. Add chicken and carrots until warm. 

  I loved this recipe. Very tasty. Can't wait until I get to make it again.
