Mix six pounds of flour with two ounces of caraway seeds, two ounces
of ground ginger, two ounces of candied orange peel, the same of
candied lemon peel cut in pieces, a little salt, six ounces of
moist sugar; melt one pound of fresh butter in about half a pint
of milk, pour it by degrees into four pounds of treacle, stir it
well together, and add it, a little at a time, to the flour; mix it
thoroughly, and make it into a paste; roll it out rather thin, and
cut into cakes with the top of a dredger or wine glass; put them on
floured tins, and bake them in rather a brisk oven.
