52 Twelvesmooth biscuits 5 eggs well beaten, 1 lb of loaf Sugar 1 lb of flour. Beat the eggs and Sugar together very well and let them stand for an hour. Then add the flour, mixing extremely well, much more than seems enough, and drop it in Small cakes, by means of a teaspoon, on Sheet tins. Put them into the oven immediately, and do not let them brown. If too soft, as usually happens, add more flour. The oven must be moderately hot, so that one tin ful of cakes will be baked while the next is preparing
