Take two ounces of almond paste, boil half a pint of rich milk, pour a little on the almond paste at first, to soften and moisten it. When it is well mixed with the back of a fork, pour on the rest of the boiling milk; mix a teaspoonful of flour with a little cold milk; pour this to the almonds and milk. Let it boil two minutes, remove from the fire, wait one minute, then stir in the yolk of an egg; stir altogether over the fire till it comes to boiling point. Add sugar to taste, and serve for any sweet pudding.
