Fried Cakes. Mrs. J. C. Johnstone
Two cups of coffee A sugar, a small teaspoon of lard, one-half teaspoon of ginger; rub all together; add two eggs, one cup of sweet milk, three teaspoons of baking powder. Mix in enough flour so you can work it nicely on the board. Cut out with cutter having hole in the center. Have your lard hot when you drop cakes in, and do not turn but once.
