Coffee Jelly

For coffee jelly take one-half box of gelatine, one pint of strong coffee and three-fourths of a pound of sugar. Soak gelatine and pour the coffee over it. When dissolved, stir in the sugar, add one-half pint of boiling water, strain into molds and serve with whipped cream.

ORANGE or GRAPEFRUIT BASKETS-Cut two pieces from the fruit leaving it in shape of a basket with handle. With an orange spoon remove pulp and place the fruit shells in ice water in order to keep them firm until needed. Use the fruit juice to flavor jelly or Bavarian Cream with which to fill the baskets. For elaborate occasions the handle of the basket may be decorated with a single flower or a ribbon bow.
