Cold sauce. =Blackberry Pudding.= Take baker's bread and cut away the crusts, butter, and slice rather thick, lay 1 layer of bread and then cover with blackberries and some of the juice (which has been stewed with a little sugar), then more bread and more berries. Over the top throw a glass of wine. Serve with hard sauce. =Rennet Pudding.= Buy a rennet from the butcher (it is the stomach of a very young calf). Wash it thoroughly, and cut it in small pieces. Put it in a quart jar, and fill with sherry wine. When wanted to use, heat a quart of milk to blood-heat, and put it in the dish in which it is to remain. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the wine water, grate a little nutmeg over the top, and put in a cold place. Very good for invalids, and makes a nice dessert, with fresh berries. =Chocolate Pudding.= 1 pint milk, 3 sticks grated chocolate, boil until thick, then set away to cool, 5 eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately, 3 tablespoons sugar, beat sugar light with the yolks, and to this add 1 cup cracker flour, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and the whites, last. Put all this in the chocolate, and let boil one and a half hours in a well-buttered form. Serve with whipped cream. =Apricot or Peach Pudding.= Butter a pan thoroughly and dust well with cracker flour, and put a row of apricots or peaches on the bottom of the pan. Take 4 eggs, beaten together with a cup of powdered sugar. Beat in a pan of boiling water twenty minutes. Then add 1 cup of flour, 1 lime or some lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla and a pinch of salt. Put this mixture over the apricots or peaches, and bake three quarters of an hour. [Illustration] ICE CREAM. =Ice Cream.= 2 quarts cream, 1 pound sugar; flavor with vanilla. Let stand in freezer five minutes to become thoroughly cold. To make it extra light, beat the whites of 2 eggs to a stiff froth, and add just before the cream is frozen. This should freeze in twenty minutes, and will make one gallon of cream. =Banana Ice.= 6 bananas, 3 peaches, 3 lemons, 1 quart sugar, 1 quart boiling water. Pour hot water over the sugar and lemon juice, and stir until it is dissolved. When cool add peaches and bananas sliced thin, and let stand two hours; then strain through fine sieve, so nothing is left but liquid. Then freeze. =Lalla Rookh.= Cut in small pieces stale sponge cake or lady fingers, a few macaroons, some French cherries and apricots (glace), and mix a
