Plain Boiled Pudding. (No. 2.)
1 cup loppered milk or cream.
½ cup molasses.
½ cup butter, melted.
2½ cups flour.
2 even teaspoonfuls of soda, dissolved in hot water.
A little salt.
Mix molasses and butter together, and beat until very light. Stir in the cream or milk, and salt; make a hole in the flour, and pour in the mixture. Stir down the flour gradually until it is a smooth batter. Beat in the soda-water thoroughly, and boil at once in a buttered mould, leaving room to swell. It should be done in an hour and a half. Eat hot with a good sauce.
