Treacle Cheesecakes

Line a buttered plate or large tartlet-tin with good short crust, and then fill it with a mixture prepared as follows. Stir a table-spoonful of flour into four table-spoonfuls of good treacle, and when the preparation is quite smooth add as much powdered ginger as will lie on a four-penny-piece. Ornament the cheesecakes by laying twists of pastry across the top, and bake in a well-heated oven for half an hour. Probable cost, 8d. Sufficient for five or six persons.
