Irish Coffe Pudding
6 eggs
3/4 c sugar
1 cup water with 1 1/2 tlbs coffee instant
2 1/2 tlb powered gelatin
1/3 c Irish whiskey or Irish Mist liqueur
2 tlb crushed walnuts
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
Separate the yolks from the whites. In a bowl cream the yolks with the sugar.
Blend the instant coffee with the water. Heat it but do not boil. Completely dissolve the gelatin in the hot coffee and add all to the yolks and sugar.
Beat well and put the bowl over a pan of boiling water. Continue beating until mixture begins to thicken.
Add the whiskey or liqueur and beat until mixture is thick and creamy. Remove from the heat and, when the bowl has cooled a little, put over cracked ice and continue to stir.
When the mixture is on the point of setting, whip the cream and fold it in. Lastly fold in the well-beaten egg whites.
