YORKSHIRE CHEESE CAKES.
- 1 teacup curds
- 1 oz. butter
- 1 oz. sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon currants
Mode.—Cream butter and sugar, mix with the curds, mix all ingredients together. Fill patty-pans, lined with pastry.
To prepare the curd, boil 2 quarts of milk, and as it rises pour in either ½ pint of vinegar or buttermilk to turn it to curds. Draw the pan to side of the fire, let it stand 5 minutes, then strain through a sieve.
Pastry requires a hot oven; if it contains baking powder—must be baked at once.
