Directions
MRS. ROBERT K. LIVINGSTONE, NEW YORK, 1775.
Two eggs, 2 tablespoons butter, 1 large tea cup cream, sweet or sour, 1 salt spoon of salt, flour enough for a very soft dough. Mix well, shape into small balls the size of an English walnut. Roll out in thin cakes, each one about the size of a dessert plate, not much thicker than paper. Bake in a pan in front of a hot fire.
