CAKES AND COOKIES
BUTTERMILK CAKE Take 1 cup of buttermilk, 1 pint of molasses, 1/2 cup of sugar, 2/3 pint of lard, 2 eggs, 2 scant teaspoonfuls of saleratus, and flour enough to make a batter a little stiffer than common cake batter if it is baked in jelly tins; if baked as drop cakes, mix stiff enough so they will not run.
