Floating Island
Milk, 1 quart.
Sugar, ½ cup.
Eggs, 5.
Jelly, 2 tablespoonfuls.
Flavor to suit.
Make a custard with the milk, the yolks of the eggs, the whites of two, and the sugar. Whip the remaining three whites to a stiff froth with a little sugar and flavoring, same as custard. Pour the custard into individual glass dishes, drop spoonfuls of the whites on the custard so as to form islands, or it may be put on with a pastry tube or paper funnel. Drop a little bright jelly in the center of each island.
