Then put fat on stove, take teaspoonfuls of the mixture and put to the fat when the fat gets warm (be careful not to have it too hot as then they would not puff), cook slowly in the fat until they get nice and brown, leaving space enough for them to turn around at any time — in a large fat kettle six at one time is enough. (Have fat deep enough to cover.) Take up, put on a broiler to drain and to get cold, then fill with thick apple sauce that has been pressed through a fine strainer, sweetened to taste, and flavored with brandy.
