Kaiser Schmarren

Ingredients

 * Have ready a cast iron pot or a heavy pot
 * 3 cups flour
 * 4 whole eggs
 * 1 tsp. salt
 * 1/2 cup sugar
 * not quite 1/2 quart of milk
 * 1/4 cup melted butter
 * 3 heaping Tbls. lard
 * Confection sugar

Directions

 * 1) In a bowl mix the flour, 4 eggs, salt, milk and melted butter.
 * 2) Mix with a whisk until smooth.
 * 3) Melt the lard in the pot, get it very hot!
 * 4) Pour in all the batter at once and cook it as a large pancake, over high heat.
 * 5) As it cooks lift up the edges of the pancake to let the uncooked batter flow underneath.
 * 6) When it is completely set, pull apart the pancake with the spatula and turn pieces over to cook on the other side. The pancake pieces should have some browned edges.
 * 7) This dish only takes a few minutes to make, but you must stay with it if you do not want to have charred pieces.
 * 8) Pile onto a serving dish, and sprinkle the top with powdered sugar.
