Ham and Macaroni

Boil half a pound of macaroni in slightly salted water for about an hour. Whilst it is boiling mince finely a quarter of a pound of gammon of bacon, and grate a quarter of a pound of Parmesan or other cheese. Drain the macaroni, and fill a plain mould or cake-tin with alternate layers of macaroni, ham, and cheese, seasoning each layer with pepper and salt. Beat two eggs with a little milk. Melt an ounce of butter, throw it over the macaroni, and, lastly, pour the eggs and milk over all. Bake for half an hour in a moderate oven. Tie a napkin round the tin, and send to table without turning it out.
