Coffee Custard

Mix thoroughly a cupful of strong, clear coffee, with four times the quantity of boiling milk, three table-spoonfuls of finely-sifted sugar, and a good pinch of salt; mix in very gradually the yolks of five eggs, well beaten. Stir the custard over a moderate fire until it thickens, pour it into cups, and serve cold. Sufficient for six persons. Probable cost, 1s. for this quantity.
