CHOCOLATE LAYER CAKE
Beat a half cupful butter to a cream, adding
gradually one cupful sugar. When light beat in a little at a time, a
half cupful milk and a teaspoonful vanilla. Beat the whites of six eggs
to a stiff froth and sift a teaspoonful and a half with two cupfuls
flour. Add the sifted flour to the mixture. Then fold in the whipped
whites. Have three buttered layer cake tins ready and put two-thirds of
the mixture into two of them, into the third tin put the remainder of
the batter, having first added to it two tablespoons melted chocolate.
Bake the cakes in a rather quick oven for twenty minutes. Put a layer of
the white cake on a large plate and cover with white icing, on this lay
a dark layer and cover with more of the white icing. On this put the
third cake and cover with the chocolate icing. Put into a graniteware
pan one cupful and a half cupful water and cook gently until bubbles
begin to rise from bottom. Do not stir or shake while cooking. Take at
once from the stove and pour in a thin stream over the stiffly whipped
whites of two eggs. Beat it until thick, flavor with vanilla, and use
two-thirds of this for the white icing. Into the remainder put a
tablespoon and a half melted chocolate and a suspicion of cinnamon
extract, and frost the top and sides of the cake.

SWEETBREADS ROASTED.

Jewish Recipes

First soak them in warm water, and then blanch them; in whatever
manner they are to be dressed, this is essential; they may be prepared
in a variety of ways, the simplest is to roast them; for this they
have only to be covered with egg and bread crumbs, seasoned with salt
and pepper, and finished in a Dutch oven or cradle spit, frequently
basting with clarified veal suet; they may be served either dry with a
_puree_ of vegetables, or with a brown gravy.

FISH EN CASSEROLE

One of those earthen baking dishes with
close-fitting cover of the same ware and fit for placing on the table is
especially useful for cooking fish. For instance, take two pounds of the
thick part of cod or haddock, both of which are cheap fish. Take off
the skin and lay in the casserole. Make a sauce from two cups of milk
heated, with a good slice of onion, a rounding tablespoon of minced
parsley, a small piece of mace, a few gratings of the yellow rind of
lemon, half a level teaspoon of salt, and a little white pepper. Cook in
the top of a double boiler for twenty minutes. Heat one-quarter cup of
butter in a saucepan, add three level tablespoons of flour, and cook
smooth, turn on the hot milk after straining out the seasonings. Cook
until thick and pour over the fish. Cover and bake half hour, then if
the fish is done serve in the same dish with little finely minced
parsley scattered over.
