Mrs. Nicotinus' Cake
Dear Aunt Daisy, About two years ago you gave over a recipe for a fruit cake made with dripping and using only two eggs. I have made this cake consistently ever since, and it is so excellent and 30 sure that I feel inspired to write in and ask you you to remind the Daisy Chain of it. My husband, who is quite fussy about the quality of the very little cake he eats, declares that this one is much nicer than any Christmas cake. The recipe was sent to you by "Mrs. Nicotinus," whose suggestions you have often put over the air. This is the recipe:-"One cup good dripping, creamed with 1 teaspucn lemon juice. Add 1 cup sugar, ard cream again well. Add 2 eggs one by one und beat. Warm ¥2 cup treacle with % cup milk, and add alternately with 3 cups flour sifted with 2 teaspoons baking powder; add 2 cups fruit and the grated rind of 1 lemon,"-D., Wellington.
