[A
DUEL
IS
FOLLY
PLAYING
AT
MURDER.]
2119.
Ginger
Biscuits
and
Cakes.
Work
into
small
crumbs
three
ounces
of
butter,
two
pounds
of
flour,
and
three
ounces
of
powdered
sugar
and
two
of
ginger,
in
fine
powder;
knead
into
a
stiff
paste,
with
new
milk;
roll
thin,
cut
out
with
a
cutter:
bake
in
a
slow
oven
until
crisp
through;
keep
of
a
pale
colour.
Additional
sugar
may
be
used
when
a
sweeter
biscuit
is
desired.
For
good
ginger
cakes,
butter
six
ounces,
sugar
eight,
for
each
pound
of
flour;
wet
the
ingredients
into
a
paste
with
eggs:
a
little
lemon-peel
grated
will
give
an
agreeable
flavour.

Sugar
Biscuits.
Cut
the
butter
into
the
flour.
Add
the
sugar
and
caraway
seeds.
Pour
in
the
brandy,
and
then
the
milk.
Lastly,
put
in
the
soda.
Stir
all
well
with
a
knife,
and
mix
it
thoroughly,
till
it
becomes
a
lump
of
dough.
Flour
your
pasteboard,
and
lay
the
dough
on
it.
Knead
it
very
well.
Divide
it
into
eight
or
ten
pieces,
and
knead
each
piece
separately.
Then
put
them
all
together,
and
knead
them
very
well
into
one
lump.
Cut
the
dough
in
half,
and
lay
it
out
into
sheets,
about
half
an
inch
thick.
Beat
the
sheets
of
dough
very
hard
on
both
sides
with
the
rolling
pin.
Cut
them
out
into
round
cakes
with
the
edge
of
a
tumbler.
Butter
tins
and
lay
the
cakes
on
them.
Bake
them
of
a
very
pale
brown.
If
done
too
much
they
will
lose
their
taste.
Let
the
oven
be
hotter
at
the
top
than
at
the
bottom.
These
cakes
kept
in
a
stone
jar,
closely
covered
from
the
air,
will
continue
perfectly
good
for
several
months.
