"Dry a half a pound of good brown sugar, pound it, mix it with two pounds of flour and sift it. Add two spoonfuls of yeast, and as much new milk as will make it like bread. When well risen, knead in half a pound of butter, make it in cakes the size of half a dollar, and fry them to a light brown in hot oil."
