Fairy Gingerbread

Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
1 cup light brown

Directions:
sugar
17/8 cups bread
flour
2 teaspoons ginger
Cream the butter, add sugar gradually, and milk very slowly. Mix and sift flour and ginger,
and
combine mixtures. Spread very thinly with a broad, long−bladed knife on a buttered, inverted
dripping−pan. Bake in a moderate oven. Cut in squares before removing from pan. Watch
carefully and turn pan frequently during baking, that all may be evenly cooked. If mixture
around
edge of pan is cooked before that in the centre, pan should be removed from oven, cooked
part
cut off, and remainder returned to oven to finish cooking.
