tard cups. . . . filling mold or cups not over
2/3 full. Adjust a cover on mold or cups

35 to 40 min. if in cups, in a moderate oven

SATIN SAUCE
(Make just before serving)

double boiler. Beat till foamy. Stir in 3/4
cup sugar and 1/4 tsp. salt. Cook over hot
water about 15 min., stirring occasionally.

HOW TO STEAM:: Fill each mold not
over 2/3 full. Adjust cover of mold
or tie wax paper loosely over
top. Place molds in steamer over
water already boiling. Steam must
surround mold. Cover steamer tight-
ly. (Have enough water in lower
kettle to last through steaming
but not enough to seep into
molds.) Lifting lid before pud-
ding is cooked will make it fall.

or deep kettle with tight-fitting cover.
