Jelly for Cake

Peel and core a few apples; pound and mix one breakfast cupful of powdered sugar and the grated peel and juice of one lemon. When mixed put in a jar, stand in a saucepan, surround with boiling water, and let it stand until cooked. Jelly prepared in this way is used for spreading over sponge-cake.
