One pound of butter, one nutmeg, one pound of sugar, ten eggs, one pound of flour, one wine-glassful of brandy and wine mixed. Beat butter and sugar very light, then by degrees add wine, brandy, nutmeg, and one quarter of the flour, and the yolks beaten very light. Then add the remaining ingredients alternately, with the whites of the eggs. Beat all well, and bake in moderate oven.
