Good Tea-Cakes & Tunbridge Cakes

We haven't yet tried this recipe. But we'd love to hear about it if you do.



Good Tea-Cakes
 
Rub four ounces of butter into eight ounces of flour, and mix with this six ounces of cleaned currants, the same of beat sugar, and three beat eggs. 

Make this into a paste, and roll it out about a half-inch thick, and stamp out the cakes of any size you please with a wine-glass, ale-glass, or small tumbler, by running a paste-cutter round the glass. 

[No cooking info given!]

Dust the top with sugar.


Tunbridge Cakes
 
Make tea cakes as above, of any size you please, and strew caraway-comfits over the top.
