Bread and Butter Pudding.
CUT a penny loaf into thin slices of bread and butter
as you do for tea. Butter your dish and lay slices all
over it. Strew on a few currants washed and picked
clean, then a row of bread and butter, then a few currants
again, and so on till your bread and butter is all in.
Take a pint of milk, beat up four eggs, a little salt,
and half a nutmeg grated. Mix all together with sugar to
your taste; then pour it over the bread, and bake it half
an hour.
