German Puffs

Put a quarter of a pint of new milk into a saucepan, with two ounces of fresh butter. When it boils, mix smoothly with it two table-spoonfuls of flour, a pinch of salt, half a small nutmeg, grated, and one heaped table-spoonful of sugar. When cool, add two well-beaten eggs. Butter some cups, rather more than half fill them with the mixture, and bake in a good oven. Serve as hot as possible, with wine or sweet sauce. Time, twenty minutes to bake. Probable cost, 6d. Sufficient for five cups.
