Yorkshire Cheese Cakes.

• 1 teacup curds
• 1 oz. butter
• 1 oz. sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon currants

Mode.—Cream butter and sugar, mix with the curds, mix all ingredients together. Fill patty-pans, lined with pastry.

To prepare the curd, boil 2 quarts of milk, and as it rises pour in either ½ pint of vinegar or buttermilk to turn it to curds. Draw the pan to side of the fire, let it stand 5 minutes, then strain through a sieve.

Pastry requires a hot oven; if it contains baking powder—must be baked at once.
