Such sweet dishes lessen the housemother's labors if she will but make them from fresh growths. We greet the spring acids with delight — our sys- tems crave them — and in early spring and summer we have rhubarb, pineapples, gooseberries, strawberries, cherries, cur- rants, and other delicious new growths. ANGEL FOOD PUDDING Use a cake of medium-size of angel food. Cut it through in an upper and under half. For a filling to spread upon these halves — as you spread strawberries on a shortcake — whip stiff one pint of cream. Into it stir half a cup of chopped and seeded raisins, half a cup of almonds and walnut meats mixed, half a cup of soft candies or marshmallows, or any candied fruits you may have in small bits. Flavor with wine, or brandy, or vanilla. Spread the cream and fruit over the lower half of the cake, lay on the upper half with the crust side down, spread this also with the cream and fruit, and serve. WARM WEATHER SWEETS 265 APPLE BETTY Break up small pieces of stale bread with its crust. Put into the bottom of a pudding dish nice-flavored, sliced apples. Over this strew a good deal of sugar, several lumps of butter, and sprinkle well with ground cinnamon. Next a layer of apples, again sugar, butter, and ground cinnamon. Then an- other layer of the broken bread, more sugar, butter, and cin- namon. Fill the dish in this manner, and have the bread the top layer, and on it also put butter, sugar, and cinnamon. Pour cold water down the side of the dish until it comes al- most to the top. To succeed this must be made rich with but- ter, and very sweet, and baked thoroughly. Set into a mod- erately hot oven, with a pan of warm water above it in the upper oven to prevent the bread burning, and bake a light brown and until the apples are very soft. When done, serve with rich cream. APPLE DUMPLINGS Apple with Meringue
