CAKES AND COOKIES

GINGER BREAD #1
 
 
 Take 1 quart of New Orleans molasses, 3/4 pint of melted lard, add flour to thicken and stir in 2 tablespoonfuls of ginger, 1 teaspoonful of pulverized alum dissolved in a tablespoonful of cold water. Dissolve 2 tablespoonfuls of soda in 3/4 of a pint of boiling water, and pour it over the mixture: then add flour enough to make it very stiff. Grease pans well and dredge white with flour to prevent sticking. Spread batter evenly in pans. This will make 2 cakes.
