🥘 Ingredients

1/2 lb. of preserve, 1 pint of milk, 2 oz. of lump sugar, 1 heaped tablespoonful of tous les mois, 3 drops of essence of cloves, 3 drops of almond-flavouring.

👨‍🍳 Method

Place the preserve at the bottom of a glass dish; put the milk into a lined saucepan, with the sugar, and make it boil. Mix to a smooth batter the tous les mois, with a very little cold milk; stir it briskly into the boiling milk, add the flavouring, and simmer for 2 minutes. When rather cool, but before turning solid, pour the cream over the jam, and ornament it with strips of red-currant jelly or preserved fruit.

This one hit different

I tried to make Stone Cream of Tous Les Mois and it brought me right back to my childhood, when my grandma would make the most peculiar, yet comforting, desserts. I found the tous les mois — a vintage biscuit crumb mixture — to be the star of the show. It added a delightful, crumbly texture that I didn't expect, like a cross between a crisp and a trifle base. I was surprised at how well it bound with the milk to create a custard-like base, despite the simplicity of the recipe. This dessert is perfect for a comfort-seeker like me, who enjoys a bit of nostalgia in their kitchen adventures. It's a delightful mix of textures and flavors, with the sweet, spiced milk custard and the tangy preserve. The red-currant jelly strips on top added a lovely pop of color and a pleasant tartness. I served it to my family after dinner, and it was a hit. I'll definitely be making this again when I'm in the mood for a cozy, old-fashioned treat.
