Lemon Cups

1 cup sugar
¼ cup enriched flour
⅛ tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. melted butter
5 Tbsp. lemon juice
Grated peel of one lemon
3 well-beaen egg yolks
1½ cups milk scalded
3 stiff-beaten egg whites

Combine sugar, flour, salt and butter; add lemon juice and peel. Add to combined egg yolks and milk. Mix well. Fold in egg whites and pour into greased custard cups. Bake in a pan of hot water in a moderate oven (325o) for 45 minutes. When baked each dessert will have custard on the bottom and sponge cake on the top.

Note: This is another McBee card recipe.
