—Crack into a vessel three fresh raw eggs, adding half a pound of powdered sugar, half a pound of well-sifted flour, and a saltspoonful of ground cinnamon, and with the spatula mix well together for five minutes; pour in a gill of sweet cream, mixing well again for two minutes.
Slide down a tube (No. 1) into the pastry-bag (No. 1079); well butter two pastry baking-pans, put the preparation into the bag, press down the preparation in strips five inches long and one and a half inch apart from one another; place one pan in a brisk oven to bake for five minutes, then pull the pan to the oven door, and with a rolling-pin six inches long by half an inch thick take up a strip with the hand and turn it around the pin in curl shape; lightly blow over it so as to slightly cool, then take from off the pin, lay it on a dish, and then proceed exactly the same with the rest; place them in a tin box or a jar, and serve when required.
If the two above-mentioned pans should not be sufficiently large to hold the preparation, they can easily be baked at different times.
