Richmond Maids of Honor Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Richmond Maids of Honor Recipe, first line small patty tins with paste, fill with the following mixture, and bake in a moderate oven twenty minutes. Mix one-fourth cream cheese (the ten-cent size) and two tablespoons sifted saltine crumbs and work with a small wooden spoon until smooth; then add one-fourth cup sugar, and one egg well beaten. Blanch one-third cup almonds, put through an almond grater, add three teaspoons of milk and pound in a mortar. Add to first mixture and beat thoroughly; then add one-fourth cup heavy cream, one teaspoon melted butter, one-half teaspoon salt and one-fourth teaspoon each grated nutmeg and almond extract. They are a bit of work, these Richmond maids of honor, but the time used in their preparation is far from wasted.
