BOSTON GINGER-BREAD.
385. Three cups of flour,
One cup of butter,
One cup of molasses,
Two eggs,
One table spoonful of dissolved salæratus,
Two large table spoonsful of ginger,
One table spoonful of cinnamon,
Milk enough to form a dough.
Rub the butter and flour together, and add the other ingredients. Roll it out in sheets, cut them, butter your tins, place them, and wash the cakes over with molasses and water before they are put in the oven. They require a very moderate heat to bake them, as they easily scorch.
