Soft Gingerbread (Two cups molasses one cup) (II)

Two cups molasses, one cup of sour milk, one egg, one tablespoonful soda, dissolved in two tablespoons of hot water, a piece of butter the size of an egg, one heaping quart of flour; let all the ingredients, except the flour, be placed on the range and heat very hot, then grease well a tin and bake. This receipt makes very nice patty pan cakes; a little salt.
