Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried macaroons, finely crushed
  • 2 cups thin cream
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ⅓ cup sherry
  • 1 pint heavy cream

Directions

1

Soak macaroons in thin cream one hour, add sugar, wine, and freeze to a mush; then add heavy cream beaten stiff. Mould, pack in salt and ice, and let stand two hours.

2

Trim lady fingers, arrange on plate in form of box. Keep in place with ribbon one-half inch wide, and fasten at one corner by tying ribbon in a bow. Garnish opposite corner with flowers of same color as ribbon. Remove ice cream from brick, cut a slice three-fourths inch thick, and place it in box.
