Make a cornstarch pudding with a quart of milk, three tablespoonfuls of cornstarch and three tablespoonfuls of sugar. When done, remove about half and flavor to taste, and then to that remaining in the kettle add an egg beaten very light, and four tablespoonfuls of vanilla chocolate grated and dissolved in a little milk. Put in a mold, alternating the dark and light. Serve with whipped cream or boiled custard. This is more of a blanc mange than a pudding. CHOCOLATE PUDDING. No. 2.
