Ingredients

  • three pints of sweet milk
  • half pint water
  • half cup sugar
  • half pint rich milk
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 cups flour
  • three eggs
  • one egg
  • two table-spoons pumpkin
  • 1 egg
  • one blanched almond
  • two out of three
  • 2 eggs
  • salt
  • nutmeg
  • cinnamon
  • ginger

Directions

1

Boil either Irish or sweet potatoes until well done, mash and rub through a sieve ; to a pint of the pulp add three pints of sweet milk, table-spoon melted butter, tea cup sugar, three eggs, pinch of salt, and nutmeg or lemon to flavor. Use rich paste for under crust.

2

PUMPKIN FIE— Eastern Style.

3

Stew pumpkin cut in small pieces in a half pint water, and, when soft, mash with a potato-masher very fine, let the water dry away, watching closely to prevent burning or scorching; for each pie take one egg, half cup sugar, two table-spoons pumpkin, half pint rich milk (a little cream will improve it), a little salt; stir well together, and season with cinnamon or nutmeg and ginger; bake with under crust in a hot oven.

SAND TARTS.— Mrs. Teel.

1 cup sugar, Yolk of 1 egg,

1 cup butter, White of 1 egg,

SAND TARTS— No. 2.— Mrs. McFarland.

9

Roll out thin and cut in square cakes with a knife; spread the white of egg on top, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar, and press a blanched almond or raisin in the centre.

10

Roll out thin a nice puff-paste, cut out with a glass or bis- cuit cutter, and with a wine-glass or smaller cup cut out the centre of two out of three of these; lay the rings thus made on the third and bake immediately. If the paste is light, the shells will be fine and may be used for tarts or oyster patties.
