• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1 pint cream
• 3 Tbsp. pineapple syrup

Directions

1. Make a custard of the milk, sugar, egg yolks and salt. When cool, add the cream and pineapple syrup. Blanch the almonds and chop them fine, then pound to a paste. Shell the chestnuts, blanch and boil until tender, also the raisins and the assorted fruits cut in bits.

This is often served in individual paper cases with a bit of candied fruit on top of each.
