Apple Charlotte

Ingredients

• 1 scant pint of apples, steamed, and rubbed through a sieve
• 1/3 of a box of gelatine, soaked an hour in 1/3 of a cupful of cold water
• 1 cupful + 3 tablespoonfuls of sugar
• juice of 1 large lemon
• 3 eggs
• 1 pint of milk

Instructions

Pour half a cupful of boiling water upon the gelatine, stir until thoroughly dissolved.

Pour upon the apple; then add 1 cupful of sugar and the lemon juice. Place in a basin of ice water, and beat until it begins to thicken.

Add the whites of the eggs, beaten to a stiff froth. Pour into a two-quart mould, which has been lined with sponge cake, and put on ice to harden.

Make a soft custard of the yolks of the eggs, milk and 3 tablespoonfuls of sugar. When the charlotte is turned out on a dish, pour this around.
