CHARLOTTE-RUSSE.
Take one-fourth of a box of Cox's gelatine, one pint of
new milk, two eggs well beaten. Put all into a saucepan
on the stove; stir constantly until the gelatine is dissolved;
do not cook it. Add one and one-half tea-cupful of sugar,
two tea-spoonfuls of vanilla✪ Charlotte-Russe (if very strong one will be
enough). Put it away to cool. Have three pints of cream
whipped. When the mixture is perfectly cold, stir in the
whipped cream, and pour into a bowl lined with sponge-
cake. Mrs. Worthington Kobinson
CHARLOTTE-RUSSE.
Put half a box of Cox's gelatine in cold water enough to
cover it. Let it stand at least one hour, then add one pint
of new milk, the yelk of one egg, two cupfuls of sugar, and
flavor with one tea-spoonful of vanilla. Put it on the stove,
stirring constantly until the egg is cooked and it thickens a
little. Do not let it boil, as it is apt to curdle. Have
ready three pints of rich cream whipped to a stiff froth.
Before the mixture is cold enough to congeal, stir in the
whipped cream, a little at a time, with an egg-whip. If
poured in fast, it wTill not mix well. Line a dish with
sponge-cake, and pour the cream over it.
Mrs. A. A. Wadsworth.
