Directions
Mrs. W. W. W.
Make a custard of the yolks of six eggs, one quart milk, a small pinch of salt, sugar to taste ; beat and strain yolks before adding to the milk ; place custard in a large tin pan, and set on stove, stirring constantly until it boils, then remove, flavor with lemon or rose, and pour into a dish, (a shallow wide one is best,) spread smoothly over the boiling hot custard the well beaten whites, grating some loaf sugar and cocoanut on the top. Set your dish in a pan of ice water and serve cold.
Mrs. C. F.
Cut sponge cake into thin slices and line a deep dish with it and make it moist with white wine ; pour over it a rich custard with the whites on the top.
