GOOSEBERRY TRIFLE.

_Ingredients._—1 quart of gooseberries, sugar to taste, 1 pint of

custard, a plateful of whipped cream. _Mode._—Put the gooseberries

into a jar, with sufficient moist sugar to sweeten them, and boil them

until reduced to a pulp. Put this pulp at the bottom of a trifle-dish;

pour over it a pint of custard made by recipe, and, when cold, cover

with whipped cream. The cream should be whipped the day before it is

wanted for table, as it will then be so much firmer and more solid; but

it should not be added to the fruit until a short time before it is

required. The dish may be garnished as fancy dictates. _Time._—About ¾

hour to boil the gooseberries. _Average cost_, 1_s._ 6_d._ _Sufficient_

for 1 trifle. _Seasonable_ in May, June, and July.
