Cruelers.

One fourth cup butter, one cup sugar, yolks two eggs, whites two eggs, four cups flour, one quarter teaspoon grated nutmeg, three and a half teaspoons baking powder, one cup milk, powdered sugar and cinnamon.

Cream the butter, add sugar gradually, yolks of eggs well beaten and whites of eggs beaten stiff.

Read by John Greenman for LibriVox.org. Home is where the heart is, thus the poet sang, But home is where the pie is for the doughboy gang.

Cruellers in the craters, pastry in the abbeys, Our Salvation Army lass sure knows how to please.

Watch her roll the pie crust mellower than gold, Watch her place it neatly within its ample mold.

Sniff the grand aroma while it slowly bakes, Though the whine of mini shells echoes far, awakes.
