Hot days are soon coming. and with them the desire, if not the neces- sity. for cold desserts. This does not, of course. mean frozen desserts. There are many kinds of cold desserts that are not frozen, but simply chille: being placed in the refrigertor. they are almost as satisfying for warm-weather desserts as the frozen ones. i Bavarian cream is a good dessert | under this head. Here is a recipe for it that is reliable: Heat one cup of cream or milk in a double boiler.{ and add a tablespoonful of gelatin which has been soaked in a couple! of tablespoonfuls of cold water and dissolved in a little boiling water. Add a beaten egg mixed with half a cup of sugar and as soon as it begins to thicken remove from the fire. Cool, and then add one cup of cream | whipped solid. To make a good chocolate Bavarian cream add two level tablespoonfuls of cocoa with the sugar. For a good coffee cream istart out with a cup of very strong coffee and milk to begin with. There are some delicious cold hot- weather desserts made with fruit— various fruit jellies. And with fresh berries crushed and sweetened you can always make an easy dessert by |adding them to whipped cream and | serving over little sponge cakes, i slices of plain cake or lady fingers. Caramel charlotte is a dessert with- out fruit. To make it dissolve half an ounce of gelatin in half a giil! of cold water. Brown three table- ! spoonfuls of sugar, add cup ot milk and stir. Mix the yolks of five {eRgs and three tablespoonfuls of sugar. a teaspoon of vanilla and two tablespoons of cold mitk. Add a little of the hot milk and then add the .egg mixture to the hot milk and stir until it iz thick. Add the gelatin and stir till it is dissolved. Strain and cool. Beat a pint of.cream stiff and when the caramel mixture begins to thicken add it slowly to the cream, beating all the time. Line a mold lady fingers or slices of sponge | cake. Fili with the ‘charlotte. Put the [mold on the lce until it is want- ed. then turn on a dish a with candied flowers. i or walnut charlotte, line cups with lady fingers at bottoms and siqes and fill with the following mixture: Dissolve a quarter of a box of gelatin by soaking it first in half a cup of cold water and then stirring it over hot water. Turn Into it a quarter of a cup of milk and two-thirds of a cup of sugar and strain. Then fold in a pint of cream whipped stiff and half a cup of chopped English wal- nut meats. Place the bowl contain- ing the mixture in a bed of ice and stir until it begins to thicken. Then fill the spaces left in the cups with the charlotte leave until it is set. In place of the gelatin a cup ;)f custard may be made with three- ourths of a cup of milk, tw and the.sugar given Shove .
