Spring Lake Gems

Make macaroon paste by the receipt for common macaroons, drop portions on baking pans and flatten them somewhat by means of two spoons. Bake the macaroons, and when slacked baked put them into party pans or gem pans of corresponding size and press them into the shape to form a sort of little baskets when cold. Ornament the edges of these with small spots icing as in the preceding article, bake a minute or two, and when cold fill the gems with minced wine jelly of different colers mixed.
