† kicheln.

Etymology: Old English cicel , of obscure etymology. The retention of unpalatalized c (k) can be explained only by taking cicel as = *cycel < *kukilo- ; in which case this word would not be related to cœcil , kechel n.; but the identity of sense makes this difficult to accept.

Obsolete. rare.

A small cake. In the quot. from Chaucer, all the manuscripts of the six-text edition have kechel. The Harleian reading, however, is also that of Thynne's ed., and from these sources the word has passed into modern dictionaries.
