SPANISH JUMBLES.

377. One pound of butter,
One pound of sugar,
Eight eggs,
Flour sufficient to form a soft dough,
One nutmeg,
One tea spoonful of ground cinnamon.

Beat the butter and sugar to a cream. Whisk the eggs very light and add them to it with the spice, and stir in flour enough to form a soft dough.

Roll the dough in strips about four inches long, join the ends so as to form rings. Butter your tins or pans, place them on them, but do not let them touch each other, and bake in a rather quick oven.
