- 1 wineglass of sherry.
- A few raisins.
- 3 stale sponge cakes.
- 1 pint of milk.

When boiling, stir in the flour, mixed with a little cold milk.
When it thickens, add the arrowroot, also mixed smoothly with milk.
Boil for three minutes, stirring all the time.
Cut the raisins in two and stone them.
Decorate a plain round tin with them.
Break up the cakes and put some pieces in the tin.
