FRUIT SOUFFLES.
RUIT souflies make delicious des-
serts and are available at all sea-
sons of the year, as any fruits
may be used in making them. Suc-
cessful soufiles are light in appearance,
nourishing and easily digested.
A Rich Souffle.
Orange Soufile.—Peel and slice six
oranges and put in a glass dish alter-
nate layers of oranges and sugar and
let stand two hours. Make a custard
of yolks of two eggs, a pint of milk
and sugar to taste, with a grating of
orange peel for flavor, and pour over
the oranges when cool enough. Beat
the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth,
sweeten and flavor to taste and pour
over the top. Serve cold.
Peach Souffle—Peel and then rub
through a sieve eight canned peaches.
Stir in with them one cupful of pow-
dered sugar and the beaten yolks of
three eggs. Whisk steadily for eight
minutes, then fold in the whites of six
eggs that have been whipped to a stiff
froth. Turn into a souffle dish, sprin-
kle with sugar and bake in a steady,
rather cool oven for ten minutes.
Made With Past.
Banana Souffle.—Take one cupful of
flour, one teaspoonful of baking pow-
der, one-quarter of a teaspoonful of
salt, one teaspoonful of butter, one-
half cupful of milk, one egg, two ta-
blespoonfuls of sugar and three ba-
nanas. Sift the flour, salt, baking
powder and sugar together, add the
milk and well beaten egg and mix
well. Brush the pan with the melted
butter and pour in the mixture. Skin
and scrape the bananas, cut into
four pieces and press into the dough.
Sprinkle with the sugar and bake
twenty minutes in a moderate oven.
Serve warm with whipped cream.
In a Cake Border.
Apple Soufle—Take one pint of ap-
ple puree, one lemon, three eggs, one
ounce of butter, one round of sponge-
cake, sugar, apricot jam, a few pista-
chio nuts and one glass of sherry. Cut
the apples in quarters and, without
peeling or coring them. stew them till
soft with the pared lemon rind and
enough water to keep them from burn-
ing. When soft rub all through a fine
wire sieve. Stir im the raw yolks of
two eggs only and put the whites
aside. Add the butter and sugar to
taste. Cook this mixture for a minate
| or two over the fire, but do not let it
boil. Take the cake and carefully hol-
low out the center, so as to leave a
case. Sprinkle it over inside with the
wine and after slightly warming the
Jam spread it thinly over the outside
and sprinkle with chopped pistachio
nuts. Beat the three whites to a stiff
froth and add them lightly to the ap-
ple mixture, Put this into the cake
border and place in a quick oven till
well puffed up. Dust with sugar and
serve immedintely.
