Rock Cream Ice.—Beat the whites and yolks of five eggs separately, mixing with the latter about half a pound of sugar (or you can mix half with the yolks and make a meringue of the egg whites and the rest of the sugar); then mix the two lightly and pour on to it a quart of boiling milk, beating it well together as you pour; stir it over the fire till it all thickens, when you lift it off and allow it to cool. Now half freeze it, then stir in a pint of stiffly whipped and rather highly flavoured cream, and finish off in the usual way. Another form of this and a somewhat richer one, is made by using single cream in the first instance, and flavouring the second lot of cream with some nice liqueur to taste. If to a quart of this ice, flavoured with a little maraschino and noyau, you add, when half frozen, some whipped cream and 4oz. to 8oz. each of all or any of the following, fresh or preserved strawberries, fresh or dried cherries, shred and blanched almonds, grated cocoanut, seeded raisins, etc., it becomes an ice well known and liked abroad under the name of Mille-fruits.
