Maize Meal Puffs

1. 1.25 ml (1 quart) milk.                                                          6. 4 eggs.
2. 2 cups maize meal.                                                               7. 1 tablespoon butter.
3. 1/2 cup fine sugar.                                                                8. 1/2 teaspoon soda bicarbonate.
4. 1 cup white flour.                                                                 9. 1 teaspoon cream of tartar.
5. 1/2 tablespoon mixed spices.


    Boil the milk and stir carefully into meal and flour to avoid lumps. Boil for 10 or 15 minutes, stirring all the time to prevent scorching, and then add the butter. Remove from heat and heat well. When cool, add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly. Add sugar, spices, soda and cream of tartar. Bake in well-greased small tins. Serve with any pudding sauce.
