l of strawberries which have been mashed and sweetened with a tablespoonful of sugar, then fold in the stiffly beaten white of an egg and finally one half cupful of cream, whipped very stiff. Fill wet molds and leave on ice three hours. Serve with or without whipped cream. STRAWBERRY CHARLOTTE.--Whip one cupful of cream very stiff. Beat the white of one large egg or two small ones very stiff. Beat into the white one half cupful of fine sugar. Combine this with the whipped cream, then lightly stir in one cupful of strawberries cut in quarters. Spoon into a mold lined with lady fingers or slices of sponge cake and place on ice for one hour. ANOTHER STRAWBERRY CHARLOTTE.--Mash one cupful of strawberries and sweeten according to the acidity of the berry. Let stand to draw the juice, an hour, then strain. Dissolve one level tablespoonful of granulated gelatine in two tablespoonfuls of cold water. Set the bowl containing it in a pan of hot water and stir until smooth, add it to the strained strawberry.
