Was it a Dr. Oetker box? I remember it well, especially the lemon version.

As a kid, we made a recipe called Hasty Pudding--a special favourite on Saturdays. It always seemed like a treat after helping Mom clean the house.

Hasty Pudding (a recipe that is at least 70 years old)
1/2 c. white or brown sugar
2 tbsp. butter
1 egg
1 c. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
pinch salt
1/4 c. raisins or dates (optional)
1/2 c. milk
Cream butter and sugar, add egg, then add dry ingredients alternately with milk.
Pour into a greased casserole.
Sauce:
1 c. brown sugar'
pinch salt
1/4 tsp. each nutmeg and cinnamon
2 c. boiling water
Combine and simmer 10 minutes. Then carefully pour over batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
