Almond Pudding, Rich

Blanch and beat to a paste a quarter of a pound of sweet almonds and five or six bitter ones, with a little water to prevent oiling; add a little sugar rubbed on lemon-rind, a piece of butter the size of an egg, melted in a glass of warm cream, five eggs well beaten, a little nutmeg, and a glass of sherry. Put the mixture into a pie-dish and bake in a moderate oven, or put it into buttered cups, and turn out. Serve with sweet sauce. Time to bake, half an hour. Probable cost, 2s. 4d. Sufficient for four persons.
