Imperial Schmarn

(German pancakes.) Whisk the yolks of 5 eggs with 1 pint of cream, or rich milk, and beat the whites very stiff. Add to the yolks and cream 4 ounces of flour and 1 tablespoonful of sugar, 1 ounce of raisins, and 1 ounce of chopped almonds. Then add the beaten whites, stir and fry on a griddle with 2 ounces of butter, either whole or in 3 parts. Let it brown; when light, sift it with sugar and serve with preserves or hot vanilla or wine sauce.
