Chocolate Pudding.—Half lb. grated chocolate, the yolks of 8 eggs well-beaten, 12 teaspoonful cinnamon, 1-2 glass wine, 1-2 tea-spoonful alspice, 1 cup powdered crackers; mix the whole thoroughly and smoothly; then beat the whites of the eggs to a solid froth. Bake slowly and well, after pouring smoothly the beaten whites on the top.
Chocolate Pudding—(Mrs. P.).—One quart milk, ^ tablespoon-fuls sugar, 4 of corn starch, 2 1-2 of chocolate ; scald the milk over boiling water; dissolve the corn starch in a little scalded milk, and before it thickens add the chocolate in boiling water; stir until sufficiently cooked.

White Almond Pudding Ices—(Mrs. B.).—Scald and skin four oz. almonds with 6 or 8 bitter ones, put on a sieve to drain and dry ; when cold put them in a mortar with 1-2 oz. sugar and ten or a dozen candied pieces of orange flowers, pound them well in a mortar, pass through a wire sieve and place in a stew-pan with the beaten yolks 8 egs, beat all the ingredients well together, then in another saucepan have boiling 3 cups of milk, which pour over the mixture by degrees; keeping it stirred, place it over the fire, stirring it till it thickens, and adheres to the back of the spoon.
