Pancakes a la Creme Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Pancakes a la Creme Recipe, first rub the rind of half a small fresh lemon with 3 or 4 large lumps of sugar until the yellow part is all taken off, then crush the sugar to powder, and mix with it a pinch of powdered cinnamon, a small pinch of salt and an ounce of dried flour. Make this into a smooth paste with a little cold milk and an ounce of clarified butter; then stir in very gradually half a pint of thick cream and the well-whisked yolks of 4 and the whites of 2 eggs. Melt a quarter of an ounce of butter in a small frying-pan, fry the pancakes very quickly, and serve them as hot as possible. They should be very thin; a second supply of butter will not be required for frying. Time, three or four minutes to fry each pancake. Sufficient for four or five persons.
