  1 1/2 lb Plain flour
      3 ts Baking powder
      6 oz Lard
      6 oz Margarine
      8 oz Golden syrup
      8 oz Sugar
           Salt
           Milk as necessary
 
  Mix together the flour, salt and baking powder. Rub in the fats, add

  pieces 1«" thick . PLce on a greased baking tin and bake in a
  moderate oven for about 25 mins, until firm and light brown. Cut and

  Remarks: This recipe can be found in many very old books, and may
  have come form the Old Norse language, where a heap of corn was known
  as Mugi. The word can be traced back through early English, where
  corn was refered to as Muge and later Muga. In it's ealiest form, it
  was probably made with yeast and honey instead of baking powder and
  syrup/sugar.
