Make three quarters of a pound of puff paste, from which cut twelve
pieces with a round cutter three inches and a half in diameter and the
thickness of a penny-piece, then roll out the trimmings, from which cut
twelve more pieces with a plain round cutter three inches in diameter,
lay a small piece of the preparation of apple as for d’Artois (No. 1177)
in the middle of the smaller sheets with a preserved cherry upon the
top, wet round the edges lightly, then place the larger sheet over,
press it well down upon the edges with the rim of the smaller cutter,
with which also cut them round; wet lightly over and place a small ring
upon the top, sprinkle white sugar in rather coarse grains over, and
bake rather white in a moderate oven, when cold place a fine preserved
cherry within each ring upon the top, and dress them in pyramid; they
may likewise be made square or any other shape, by following the above
directions, they may be made smaller if required.
