Stir a pint of cranberries into a quart of stiff batter. Boil well, and serve up with sweet sauce. Some persons make sauce by mixing butter and sugar together, but it may be much improved by making some paste, by boiling flour and water, and then stirring in butter and sugar to suit the taste. Grate on nutmeg or cut some lemon peel very fine to season it— Mrs. Child.
