One and one-half cup of grated cocoanut, one-half cup of English walnuts chopped fine, one tablespoonful of rose water, three tablespoonfuls of sugar; mix well, moisten with three tablespoonfuls of thick cream. Spread mixture on thin slices of buttered white bread, cover with another slice and cut in strips.

COCOANUT SANDWICH NO. 2

Roll out one-half pound of puff paste until one-fourth of an inch thick, then place it in a baking tin and bake in a hot oven until a golden brown; when done, let it get cold; whip one-half pint of cream to a stiff dry froth, add to it three tablespoonfuls each of powdered white sugar and desiccated cocoanut. Cut the pastry into strips three inches long by one inch wide; spread some of the cocoanut cream on each piece, put two pieces together and sprinkle powdered white sugar thickly over them.
