Confectionery
Mrs. Hooper's way:—½ lb. fresh butter, ½ lb. treacle, melted
together, ½ lb. flour, ¼ oz. ginger, 2 ozs. sugar; work all well
together; take up ½ teaspoonful at a time and place each small
quantity separate on baking sheet. It will run into shape in the
oven. Bake snaps a light brown about 5 minutes. Let them
cool a little then twist into cornicopia shape. This is the curly
“snap” kind. If made very thin, they are good filled with
whipped cream, as a Sweet Dish.
