Double Decker Pastry

This recipe is an experience for anyone, it's kind of unique and very different from today's baking, today all you need to do is go to the market and pick something off of the shelf, put it in the microwave and you have it. Well I'm old fashion when it is something I'm going to eat and enjoy, I need to have hands on and do it the old way. OK enough jabber let's get on with the recipe so we can enjoy it, remember your ingredients should be room temperature or close to it.

Ingredients for dough: 5 cups unsifted flour 1 cup sugar 4 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons baking soda pinch of salt
