Spice Cakes Recipe

Melt a tea-cup of butter, mix it with a tea-cup of sugar, and half a

tea-cup of molasses. Stir in a tea-spoonful of cinnamon, the same

quantity of ginger, a grated nutmeg, and a tea-spoonful each of caraway

and coriander seed--put in a tea-spoonful of saleratus, dissolved in

half a tea-cup of water, stir in flour till stiff enough to roll out

thin, cut it into cakes, and bake them in a slow oven.
