HALF a cup of butter, one of sugar, three of flour, one of milk, three
eggs, one teaspoonful of soda, two of cream of tartar, and lemon or
nutmeg to taste✪ Plain Cup Cake. Beat the butter light, then add the sugar gradually,
beating all the time until it is a cream, and then add the eggs, which have been
beaten light, and the milk ; mix all these well together, and then stir in the
flour, in which the soda and cream of tartar have been mixed. Flavour
and bake either in loaves or sheets ; when done, the place on top where it
has cracked open, will look well done. If baked in loaves, it will take forty
minutes, in sheets, twenty. This quantity will make two small loaves.
