This recipe is so old that the instructions say to place the ingredients in a tin basin and cook! So many recipes that I have have little or no instructions, just a list of ingredients. Sometimes the list of ingedients is vague also. Example: butter the size of an egg for an amount! This sauce goes great on gingerbread! Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons butter |
1 egg, beat lightly |
1 lemon, juice and zest of |
1/2 cup boiling water |
Directions:
1. Cream together the sugar and butter in a small pan over low heat. Add the slightly beaten egg and blend. Add the juice from 1 lemon and the zest from the lemon. Add the boiling water slowly and stir over the low heat till mixture thickens. |
