The following delicious nut-like dessert, which I have worked out, may be molded in any chinaor glass dish or regular mold, and served either with milk or cream as a dessert, or on lettuce withsalad dressing as a BANANA WHIP H cupful sugar or syrup 3^ cupful chopped nuts or J^ cupful of crumbed toasted white or graham bread;cake or cookie crumbs l/2 envelope Knox Sparkling Gelatine}/i cupful cold water 4 tablespoonfuls of lemon juice 1 cupful of boiling water 1 cupful of banana pulp (about 2 bananas) Soak the gelatine in cold water for five minutes; add the sugar or syrup to the boiling water, boil for one minuteand add to the softened gelatine. Cool. Add the lemon juice to the banana pulp and mash until blended. Beat thegelatine mixture until it is frothy and of about the thickness of whipped cream. Add the banana pulp.
