Ingredients:
1/4 lb. of ratafias, 4 or 5 sponge cakes, 3 eggs, 3/4 pint of milk,
sugar to taste, vanilla flavouring.

Directions:
Butter a mould, press the ratafias all over it, and lay in the sponge cakes cut in slices; then put in more ratafias and sponge cakes until the mould is almost full. Beat the yolks of the eggs well together and the whites of 2 eggs. Boil the milk and pour it on the eggs, let it cool a little, add sugar and flavouring. Pour into the mould. Cover it with buttered paper and steam for about 1 hour. Turn it out carefully, and serve with jam or sauce round it.
