Hasty Puffs

Stir two ounces of flour quickly and smoothly into half a pint of boiling milk which has been sweetened and flavoured with lemon-rind or nutmeg. Boil up, then add two ounces of butter, and, when cool, two eggs, well beaten. Butter four small moulds. Pour a quarter of the mixture into each, and bake in a good oven. Turn out before serving, and place a little jam on the top of each puff. Time, ten to fifteen minutes to bake. Probable cost, 6d. Sufficient for four persons.
