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
  sandwich tins.  Bake for 30-40 minutes. Cut in half,
  spread with butter and eat hot.  Oven control, Gas
  Mark 5 (375F).
