Baked Alaska Recipe
Make twice the recipe for Mouse, but omit the sugar and in its place add 1 cup Peanut Brittle forced through a food chopper or crushed.
Freeze in large refrigerator pan until very firm.
Bake Sponge cake in a shallow pan and cut in a sheet 7 inches by 11 inches.
Make a stiff Meringue.
Cover a small board with a paper doily a trifle larger, and lay the sponge cake on the doily.
Remove mousse to sponge cake, cover quickly and completely with the meringue, spreading it smoothly or leaving it rough, or decorating with pastry bag and rose rube, as you please.
Place in broiling oven or in a very hot oven and brown quickly.
It will take about two minutes.
Remove doily and all, from board to serving platter and serve immediately.
