GINGERSNAPS
In a Rhyme
And if the best you wish to know
Why study well the lines you find below.
Melt of butter half a pound, also of lard.
Stir in a quart of (mo)lasses not too hard,
Then add brown sugar, half a pound.
Four tablespoons of ginger nicely ground.
Into the mixture sift two quarts(4 cups) of flour,
Then to insure the cake will not be sour.
Dissolve in milk four tablespoons of soda.
Saleratus is advised, but I do not like the odor.
Mix either with milk, it surely makes no matter
Just so you pour the milk into the batter.
Add more flour and roll thin the dough.
Then cut in cakes, but this you surely know.
Bake them well in an oven cooks call slow
And when baked they will not last long, I know.
