1. Mix Presto and sugar together. Cut in margarine until mixture is crumbly.
2. Add milk, mixing to a soft dough.
3. Divide dough in half on floured surface. Roll out each half to form an 8 inch circle.
4. Place one circle in a greased and floured 8 inch round cake pan, brush with melted butter, and place second circle on top.
