Chocolate Pudding with Macaroons

Put 3 cups milk to boil. Have 5 tablespoons grated chocolate in pan with 1/2 cup boiling water and 4 tablespoons sugar. When chocolate paste is smooth pour in milk. Mix 4 tablespoons cornstarch with 1 cup milk, add 1 teaspoon Crisco, and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and with this thicken boiling milk. Add 1 cup macaroon crumbs and beaten whites of 2 eggs. Pour into wet mold and set on ice 1 hour. Sweet Potatoes, Southern Style Bake sweet potatoes until thoroughly done. Remove from oven and cut in halves lengthwise; remove potato from skins carefully, so as to keep skins in condition to refill. Mash potato, adding sufficient melted Crisco and cream to moisten. The potato mixture should be of the consistency of mashed potato when put back in shells. Season with salt, pepper, and a very little sherry. Refill skins, brush tops with Crisco and brown 5 minutes in hot oven. Asparagus, Italian Style Cut tender parts of 2 bunches of asparagus into short lengths and set to boil till quite tender. Take up, drain, and put into saucepan with 3 tablespoons melted Crisco, few drops lemon juice, sprinkling of red pepper and salt. Let get thoroughly hot, take up, and serve on slices of fried bread.
