Biscuit Pates
Make a nice light baking powder biscuit. Have ready, when the biscuits are done, one cupful of small mushrooms cooked tender and cut fine, dressed with one half cupful of cream, mixed with juice of mushrooms, and thickened with one teaspoonful of flour, blended with teaspoonful of butter; season to taste with salt and pepper. Take a thin slice off of the bottom of the biscuit, dig out the center, leaving reasonably thick walls, put little piece of butter in the shell and fill with mushrooms dressing; serve at once. Stale biscuit may be used by toasting them a few minutes in a hot oven after they have been hollowed out. These are crisp and some prefer them to fresh biscuit.
