When Margaret wanted to make her own freezer full of ice-cream, she just took a cup of cream and heated it with the sugar, and when it was cold put in three drops of vanilla and froze it. CAKE Next after the ices in her book, Margaret found the cake to eat with them, and first of all there was a rule for some little cakes which the smallest girl in the neighborhood used to make all alone. Eleanor's Cakes 1/4 cup of butter. 1/2 cup of sugar. 1/4 cup of milk. 1 egg. 1 cup flour. 1 teaspoonful baking-powder. 1/2 teaspoonful of vanilla. Rub the butter and sugar to a cream, beat the egg light without separating, and put it in next; then the milk, a little at a time; mix the baking-powder with the flour and stir in, and last the vanilla. Bake in small scalloped tins, and fill each one only half-full. Grandmother's Little Feather Cake 1 cup of sugar. 2 tablespoonfuls soft butter. 1 egg. 1/2 cup milk and water mixed. 1 1/2 cups sifted flour. 1 teaspoonful baking-powder. Rub the butter and sugar to a cream. Beat the yolk of the egg stiff and put that in; then add part of the milk and water, and part of the flour and baking-powder, which has been sifted together; next the vanilla, and last the stiff whites of the eggs, not stirred in, but just lightly folded in. If you put them in heavily and roughly, cake will always be heavy. Bake this in a buttered biscuit-tin, and cut in squares when cold. It is nice covered with caramel or chocolate frosting. Domino Cake Make this feather cake and pour it into two pans, so that the bottom shall be just covered, and bake it quickly. When it is done, take it out of the pans and frost it, and while the frosting is still a little soft, mark it off into dominoes. When it is entirely cold, cut these out, and with a clean paint-brush paint little round spots on them with a little melted chocolate, to exactly represent the real dominoes. It is fun to play a game with these at a tea-party and eat them up afterwards. Margaret's Own Cake Margaret's mother named this cake for her, because she liked it so much to make it and to eat it. It is a very nice cake for little girls. 5 eggs. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 cup of flour. 1 pinch of salt. 1/2 teaspoonful of lemon-juice, or vanilla. Separate the eggs, and beat the yolks very light and foamy; then put in the sugar which you have sifted, a little at a time, and the flour in the same way, but put them in in turn, first sugar, then flour, and so on. Then put in the flavoring, and last fold in the whites of the eggs, beaten very stiff. Bake in a buttered pan. Sponge Cake 4 eggs. 1 cup powdered sugar. 1 cup sifted flour. 1 level teaspoonful baking-powder. Juice of half a lemon.
