No. 145 Puff Pudding
Mix 2 cups of flour with 2/3 of a cup of butter, and 2 cups of sugar. Dissolve 3 teaspoonfuls of good baking powder in 1 cup of milk and 1 teaspoonful of essence of lemon and half a nutmeg. Take 4 eggs—keep the whites of 2 for frosting—and beat the others thoroughly; then mix all together, and bake in a quick oven. When done frost the top with the reserved whites, well beaten, with a small quantity of powdered sugar.
