Turn into a buttered pudding-dish and bake in a hot oven to a delicate brown. Serve immediately. Prune soufflé (delicious) Soak eighteen prunes over night and stew tender.

Beat the prunes into this, turn into a greased pudding-dish and bake for twenty minutes. Serve immediately with whipped cream. Lemon soufflé Make a white roux of two tablespoonfuls of butter and the same of flour; heat a cupful of milk to the boiling point, add to the roux and set aside to cool; then add the yolks of four eggs well beaten with powdered sugar and the juice and grated rind of one lemon.
