                  APPROVED RECEIPTS.
                     Thick Ginger Bread.
A Pound and a half of flour takes up one
of treacle, almost as much sugar, an ounce
of beaten ginger, two ounces of caraway seeds, 
four ounces of citron, and lemon peel  candied, 
the  yolks of four eggs; cut your  sweet meats, 
mix all, and bake it in large cakes, on tin plates.
