Indian Loaf Cake
371. One pound of Indian meal,
A quarter of a pound of butter,
Two eggs,
Half a pound of sugar,
A quarter of a pound of raisins,
A quarter of a pound of currants.
Cut up the butter in the Indian meal, pour over it as much boiling milk as will make a thick batter. Beat the eggs very light; when the batter is cool pour them into it. Seed the raisins, wash, pick, and dry the currants, mix them with the raisins, and dredge as much wheat flour on them as will adhere to them. Stir the fruit into the batter and add the sugar. Bake it in a moderate oven two hours.
