Brown Bread Cream Ice.—Prepare a pint of brown
bread crumbs, and either mix them with one-third
of a pint of liqueur syrup, and a pint of cream or
milk, or scald one and a half pints of cream, or half
cream and half new milk, with a vanilla bean, and
strain and mix it with the crumbs, putting it into
the freezer when cold, and freeze. Of course, more
or less rich custard can be used instead of the cream,
either with or without a spoonful or two of whipped
cream stirred into the mixture when half frozen.
Stale sponge cake crumbs, ratafias, macaroons, etc.,
roughly crumbled, can be used up for ices in this
way.
