- a pound of brown sugar^ stir it on the fire
- two parts^
Directions
Melt three ounces of butter^ and then mix
with it a pound of brown sugar^ stir it on the fire for a quarter of an hour^ add a little essence of peppermint^ and pour it out on a slab^ oiled^ divide it into two parts^ and when you can bear to handle it, work it well till white, then cut it into losenges. Ton may mix a Uttle that has been worked with some which has not been touched, and then cut it into lozenges the form you like.
