Ingredients
- three-fourths pound butter
- one teaspoon baking powder
- ten eggs
- one-third inch in diameter at small end
Directions
Chas. W. Cyphers, Minneapolis, Minn.
Three-fourths pound butter, one of sugar, ten eggs ; beat eggs and sugar as light as for sponge cake; sift in with flour one teaspoon baking powder and stir slowly. jMake a funnel-shaped bag of heavy ticking or strong brown paper ; through the hole in the small end, push a funnel shaped tin tube, one-third inch in diameter at small end and provided with a flange at the other to prevent it from slipping quite through ; tie the small end of bag firmly around the tube, and you have a funnel shaped sack with a firm nozzle projecting slightly from the small end. Into this bag pour the batter, over which gather up the bag tightly so that none will run out, press and run the dough out quickly through the tube into a pan lined with light brown paper, (not buttered), making each about a finger long, and about as thick as a lead pencil.
Care is required not to get them too wide ; sprinkle with granulated sugar, bake in a quick oven, and, when cool, wet the underside of the paper with a brush, remove and stick the fingers together back to back. The bag, when made of ticking, will be useful in making macaroons and other small cakes.
