Directions
Preheat oven to 400℉ (200℃) (205C).
Lightly grease a large baking sheet; set aside.
Sift flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt into a large bowl; set aside.
In a medium-size saucepan, combine molasses and 2 tablespoons butter; stir over low heat until butter is melted.
Make a well in the center of dry ingredients; add molasses mixture and milk and mix with a form to form a soft dough.
Turn out onto floured surfaces. Roll out with a floured rolling pan or pat dough with your hands to form a round about ½-inch thick.
Cut into rounds with a 2-inch fluted or plain cookie cutter.
Place 1 to 1½ inches apart on baking sheet.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until well risen and golden.
Transfer to a wire rack and cool 5 minutes.
Split and serve warm with butter and jam if desired.
