Macaroni Scallops No. 2

4 ounces pipe macaroni 2 tablespoons cream 1 small Spanish onion 4 ounces cooked chestnuts A little butter 2 ounces grated cheese Pepper and salt to taste Throw the macaroni into boiling water for half an hour; then drain and chop up very fine with the onion, which has been scalded first. Cook the chestnuts, and pass through a sieve. Mix all together with the cream; butter some scallop shells, and fill them with the mixture. Sprinkle over them a layer of grated cheese, and then one of bread crumbs on top. Cut up the butter in small pieces, and put them on the bread crumbs; brown in the oven for about a quarter of an hour.
