APPLE PUDDING, No. 1.

254. Half a pound of the mashed apple,
Half a pound of butter,
Half a pound of sugar,
Five eggs,
Half a nutmeg,
Two table spoonsful of brandy, or rose-water if preferred.

Peel the apples and core them; cut them in small pieces, and stew them in very little water till they are soft. Pass them through a sieve to free them from lumps.

Beat the butter and sugar smooth, whisk the eggs and add to it; then stir in the apples, (which should be half a pound when mashed,) brandy or rose-water and nutmeg. Cover your pie plates with a rich crust and bake in a moderate oven.

These are very rich.
