Suppose we make them of the size of a breakfast saucer, a very rich and delicious cheese-cake can be made by adding some chopped dried cherries to the mixture.

Sometimes ordinary grocer's currants are added and the ratafias omitted.

Sultana raisins can be used instead of currants, and by many are much preferred.
This mixture can be baked in a shallow pie-dish and time edge of the dish lined with puff paste, but cheese-cakes made from curds are undoubtedly expensive.
CHEESE-CAKES FROM POTATOES .-- Exceedingly nice cheese-cakes can be made from remains of cold potatoes, and can be made very cheap by increasing the quantity of potatoes used.
