Queen of Puddings.
1½ cups of sugar.
5 eggs.
2 cups of dry bread-crumbs.
1 tablespoonful of butter.
2 teaspoonfuls vanilla, or other extract—Colgate’s, if you can get it.
1 quart of fresh milk.
½ cup sweet fruit-jelly, or jam.
Cream butter and sugar and whip in the yolks. Soak the crumbs in the milk and add next—then flavor. Pour into a buttered pudding-dish, filling it two-thirds of the way to the top, and bake until well “set” in the middle. Draw to the oven door, spread quickly with the jelly, and this with a méringue of the whites and half a cup of sugar. Shut the oven and bake quickly until the méringue begins to color. Eat cold with cream.
