CAKES AND COOKIES

FRUIT CAKE #3
 

 Take 1 pound of sugar, 1 pound of flour, 1/2 pound of butler, 7 eggs, 1/2 pound of currants well washed and dried, 1 pound of raisins, 1 pound of dates seeded, 1/4 pound of citron sliced, 1 teaspoonful of ground cinnamon, 1 teacupful of buttermilk, 1 teaspoonful of soda and the juice and grated yellow rind of 1 lemon. Dredge the fruit with flour, cream the butter and sugar together, add the beaten yolks, the milk and soda, then the spices, and last the beaten whites alternately with the flour, fruit, and lemon juice. This amount requires a 7-pound mould and 2 1/2 hours for baking in a moderate oven, or it can be divided into parts and baked in 2 hours.
