Directions
Preheat oven 425 degrees F.
Sift flour and salt into mixing bowl, blend in butter using clean hands until it is like fine bread crumbs.
Add sugar, rasins, and marmalade and mix well with spoon.
Add egg and blend in flour mixture until stiff and rocky.
The mixture must be stiff, or it will lose shape when baking.
Pull off golf ball size chunks of dough and drop on cookie sheet about 1 inch apart.
Do not smooth out dough pieces.
Bake in oven for 15 minutes until lightly browned.
Remove from oven and turn rock cakes bottom side up to cool.
Served as a snack with milk or tea.
