ANOTHER COCOA-NUT PUDDING.—

Peel and cut up the cocoa-nut, and wash and wipe the pieces. Weigh one pound, and grate it fine. Then mix with it two stale rusks or small sponge-cakes, grated also. Stir together till very light half a pound of butter and half a pound of powdered white sugar, and add a glass of white wine. Beat six whole eggs very light, and stir them gradually into the butter and sugar in turn with the grated cocoa-nut. Having stirred the whole very hard at the last, put it into a buttered dish and bake it half an hour. Send it to table cold.
