The Cup-Cake rule makes good but plainer ones.

Make rings, either by cutting in long strips and joining the ends, or by using a large and small cutter.

Sift sugar over the top, and bake a delicate brown.

By adding a large spoonful of yellow ginger, any of these rules become hard sugar-gingerbread, and all will keep for a long time.
DROP CAKES.
Any of the rules last mentioned become drop cakes by buttering muffin-tins or tin sheets, and dropping a teaspoonful of these mixtures into them.

If on sheets, let them be two inches apart.
