Waffles Recipe

Three pounds of sifted flour.
A pound of powdered sugar.
Three quarters of a pound of butter.
Four eggs.
Half a large tea-cup full of best brewer's yeast.
A pint and a half of milk.
A tea-spoonful of powdered cinnamon.
A grated nutmeg.
A table-spoonful of rose-water.
Cut up the butter in the flour. Add the sugar, spice, and
rose-water. Beat the eggs very light, and pour them into the
mixture. Add the yeast, (half a tea-cup or two wine-glasses full,)
and then stir in the milk by degrees, so as to make it a soft
dough. Cover it, and set it to rise.
When quite light, cut it in diamonds with a jagging-iron or a
sharp knife, and fry them in lard. Grate loaf sugar over them when
done.
