Lemon Puffs

Whisk the yolks of three eggs together with one-fourth pound of powdered sugar, then beat in three tablespoonfuls of milk, and sprinkle in a very little salt and the grated peel of a lemon; whip the whites of three eggs to a stiff froth and beat them in the above, and stir in finally one-half pound of flour. Pour the batter into muffin-rings, and bake in a quick oven. They should be baked immediately after the batter is mixed.
