Molasses Jumbles

Ingredients

• 3/4 pound of sugar
• 3/4 pound of butter
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 pint of molasses
• rose brandy
• nutmeg
• flour

Instructions

Beat the sugar, butter, and eggs together; stir in the molasses; add rose brandy and nutmeg, and enough flour to make a soft dough; roll it in rings, and bake as other jumbles. By the addition of half a pint of molasses and a tea-spoonful of salaeratus, you will have a common black cake, which may be baked in one large pan.
