Methods:

Preheat oven to 350° . Mix flour,sugar,and baking powder in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. In a small bowl, lightly beat the eggs,add the milk and vanilla and mix. Pour the milk mixture into center of the flour mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. Cover the bowl with a towel and let rest for 15 minutes.

Divide the dough into five pieces. On a floured work surface, roll each into 1/2″ thick ropes. Cut into 3″ lengths and tie each into a loose knot. Place on a baking sheet and bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until dry. They will be pale in color. Cool until still warm then ice.
