  3. Place rounds of greased parchment or waxed paper in the bottom of clean one-pound cans; grease the sides of the cans and fill 2/3 full with batter.

  5. Cover the kettle and let the water come to the boil.
  6. Boil gently from 1 to 2 hours or until well done, adding more boiling water as necessary to keep the water at the desired level.
  7. Uncover the kettle and place cans in a 400F oven for a few minutes to dry the top.
