Let cool and add yolks of six eggs, well beaten. Season with small quantity of vanilla extract. The above recipe was ob- tained from a prominent confectioner in one of the large cities, who is more noted for his delicious chocolate ice creams than any one in the city.

Stir briskly until it thickens; when partly cool add whites beaten to a froth. When cool add one quart cream, a little sherry wine or vanilla, and one or two dozen macaroons, rolled fine. Freeze.— Mrs. Tigrett.

3

Orange Cream. — Half box of gelatine, one pint of cream, one pint of milk, one cup of sugar, five oranges, five eggs (yolks) ; cover the gelatine with cold water, let soak half hour ; whip the cream. When milk boils dissolve gelatine into it ; beat eggs and sugar together and strain milk and gelatine into them; make the boiler clean and put mixture in and stir over fire two minutes, then turn out to cool. When cold add the juice of oranges (after straining). Place this basin in pan of cracked ice and stir constantly till it thickens; then add the whipped cream; stir till mixed well.

4
