Melt a tea-cup of butter, half a one of lard, and mix them with a quart
of flour, a couple of beaten eggs, a tea-spoonful of salt, a wine glass
of wine. Add milk till of the right consistency to roll out--roll it out
about the third of an inch in thickness, cut it into cakes with a wine
glass, lay them on buttered baking plates, and bake them a few minutes.
Frost them as soon as baked, and sprinkle comfits or sugar sand on the
top.
