BISCUIT
(Pezzo in gelo)
Make a cream with:
Water, five ounces.
Sugar, two ounces.
The yolks of four eggs.
A taste of vanilla.
Put it on the fire stirring continually and when it begins to stick to the ladle remove from the fire and whip to a stiff froth. Then mix about five ounces of ordinary whipped cream, put in a mold and pack in salt and ice.
Keep in ice for about three hours.
This dose will be sufficient for seven or eight persons.
