Ingredients
- one pound cocoanut
- half pound white sugar
- half pound powdered white sugar
- one table- spoonful flour
- five eggs
- two together
Directions
One pound cocoanut, half pound white sugar, one table- spoonful flour. Grate the nut, mix the sugar and flour with it, work all well together. Make it out in little balls, place them on tins, bake in a quick oven. To prevent the cakes getting too brown on the under side place several thicknesses of paper under them.
Half pound powdered white sugar, add whites of five eggs. Beat the eggs to a stiff froth, add sugar by degrees, then drop on white paper with a small spoon at least an inch apart; put this paper on a board or on many thicknesses of paper ; put them in a quick oven. Pass a knife under them, slip them off the paper, and put two together.
