Boil the crumb of bread in milk; beat it with a wooden spoon; grate the Cheshire cheese, add the yolks of the eggs, and the butter; beat all well together. Beat up the whites to a thick froth; put this in last, and beat the whole well together. Bake in two paper cases or a dish, in a quick oven, for twenty minutes.
