Jellied Prune Ring

Soak one-third of a pound of prunes over night in cold water. In the morning simmer slowly till soft. Stone them and cut in pieces. To the prune juice add enough boiling water to make two cups of liquid, pour it over two and one-half tablespoons of gelatine dissolved in half a cup of water, then add one cup of sugar and four tablespoons of lemon juice. Strain, add the cut prunes and pour into a ring mold. Turn out when thoroughly chilled. Fill the center with whipped cream sweetened and flavored with vanilla. Garnish the base of the dish with well plumped cooked prunes and whipped cream squeezed through a pastry tube. - See Page XX.
