Crème aux Fruits

1 quart cream
³⁄₄ cup sugar
4 whites of eggs
1 tea-spoon vanilla
1 table-spoon wine or liqueur
1 cup chopped crystallised fruit
1 oz. gelatine

Soak the gelatine in cold water. Whip the cream (see p. 3). Add the sugar. Dissolve the gelatine in a very little boiling water. Stir it quickly until cool. Pour it slowly on the whites beaten to a dry stiff froth. Stir well together. Add the cream, mix very well. Add the vanilla, wine or liqueur. When the mixture begins to thicken add the fruit gradually. Place a number of crystallised cherries in the bottom of a mould. Pour in the cream. Set on ice.
