Charlotte Russe (Dissolve one-fourth package)

Dissolve one-fourth package of gelatine in enough water to cover it, then make a custard of one quart of milk and yolks of four eggs and enough sugar to sweeten, stir in the gelatine and mix all together on the stove until it thickens; then turn into a bowl to cool, adding a little vanilla and sherry wine to flavor to suit your taste. When cool, stir in the whites of four eggs, after they have been beaten to a stiff froth; line the moulds with slices of sponge cake after dipping it into a mixture of sherry wine and sugar and water, just enough to moisten the cake; fill the moulds with the mixture, and set one side to get stiff, then turn out on a dish to eat.
