Nut Puree
3 ounces walnuts 3 ounces almonds 3 ounces chestnuts or Brazils 4 ounces biscuits 1/2 pint of cream 1/4 pint milk A few drops of vanilla Blanch the almonds, and remove every particle of skin from the walnuts and chestnuts, or Brazils, put them all through a nut mill, and mix well together. Boil the milk separately, and pour over the nuts; allow it to cool, then add the cream and vanilla, and beat all thoroughly together. Put the biscuits, sweet or plain ones, into a glass dish, and pour the mixture over, and allow it to stand two hours. A little whipped cream may be put on the top, if liked, or a few ratafia biscuits and crystallized cherries.
