 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6      slices        whole wheat or French bread
                         Butter
    1      c             soft or grated maple sugar -- up to 1 1/2 cups
      1/3  c             chopped walnuts
                         Rich cream or sour cream
 
 Toast the bread on one side. Butter the untoasted side. Sprinkle generously
 with the sugar, without going too near the edges. Place on broiler, 4
 inches away from the source of heat and broil until the sugar melts and
 bubbles. Set on a plate -- each one sprinkles the nuts to taste on top and
 pour cream over all.

 NOTES : A sugaring party spectacular, especially since I learned to make it
 at “grand'papa’s” sugar ouse, with freshly beaten soft sugar. However
 grated maple sugar will do very well.
