1 tablespoonful of butter.
1/4 teaspoonful of salt.
1 heaped teaspoonful of baking powder.
1 egg.
Beat the butter to a cream; then beat the sugar into it. Next add the unbeaten egg and beat vigorously for three or four minutes. Add the salt and milk, and then the flour, with which should be mixed the baking powder. Beat for a few seconds, and, turning the batter into a small, well buttered pudding dish, bake for about twenty-five minutes in a moderate oven. Serve with a hot liquid sauce.
The measure of flour is for pastry flour.
If the new-process flour be used, measure a very scant half-pint.
Lemon Pudding.
2 rounded tablespoonfuls of granulated sugar.
