Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

10 oz Flour
4 oz Lard
3 oz Sugar
Egg
1/2 ts Bicarbonate
1 ts Treacle
Pinch mixed spice and ginger
4 oz Dried fruit
1 c Milk
Pinch salt

Cream the sugar and fat. Mix in the egg and add the remainder of the
ingredients, having desolved the bicarbonate in the milk. Bake in a
greased tin for about 3/4 hour in a moderately hot oven. Gas control,
Gas MArk 5 (375F). Alternate: 3 teacupsful of flour; 1 teacupful of
butter; 1 teacupful of sugar; 2 teaspoonful of baking powder; 2 eggs;
milk to mix; a little dried fruit. Rub the butter into the flour, add
sugar, baking powder and well beaten eggs and milk if necessary - it
must be kept fairly stiff. This mixture is enough to fill two
