Nutmeg Sauce image

From a 1930s hand written cookbook from Neligh Ne. She had this written down two times so she used it for something important to her. We use vanilla sauce on pound cake in our family. This sauce is wicked good on my spice cake recipe . It will bump up old coffee cake. Mr. picky was licking the pan. The top part of the recipe was how it was written; at the bottom was how I did it.
