One lemon grated whole, one cup raisins, seeded and chopped fine, one-half cup sugar, one egg, one tablespoonful cracker dust, bake in " turnovers" or patty pans or better still, roll trimmings of puff paste as thin as possible, put a layer on a baking sheet, spread with above mixture and cover with another flat of paste. Mark off with a pastry jagger in strips four inch long by two inch wide and bake in a quick oven. These are nice with a thin icing and are delicious with cocoa for lunch. Another, richer filling is made by chopping very fine one-quarter pound figs, two ounces citron, one-quarter cup pistachio nuts (or almonds), two ounces seeded raisins, add one egg well beaten and use like the above.
