Aunt Susie's Pudding

Beat a quarter of a pound of butter to a cream. Stir gradually into it two table-spoonfuls of ground rice, and the same of fine flour, sugar to taste, the thin rind of half a lemon chopped small, two ounces of candied orange-or citron-peel, a breakfast-cupful of new milk, and two well-beaten eggs. Flavour with a few drops of essence of almonds, pour the mixture into a well-oiled mould, tie in a cloth, and boil it. Turn out, and serve with sweet sauce. A little brandy will be an improvement. Time to boil, two hours. Probable cost, 1s. Sufficient for four or five persons.
